After some reading im astonished to say if i ever have extra money laying around in the future i wanna get me a little 250... no no the 250's your thinking of...

more like this kind

after doing some calculations...

a typical 250 like seen below weights around 200 lbs and can put out around 100 hp... giving it a .5 hp/wght. ratio....

where as my 929 dry weight is around 379 lbs with a hp somewhere around 160

giving it a .42216 hp/wght. ratio...

which got me thinking, with my whopping weight of 135 lbs.... a 200lb. 100hp. street machine would be the way to go i cant even imagine riding something with that kind of weight and maneuverability...

 

Maybe as a track bike...
It would he hard to get that kind of power out of a street bike and keep it reliable

guy on front is on a 250 camera man is on a gsxr1000

its awesome to watch how nimble they are in the corners

 

you're looking a $20k 250 easy lol, prolly more than that

 

its like boosting a 93 civic hatch...

wow that is a great video. i bet that two fifty makes you feel invincible on the track. personally i wouldnt get anything besides a mid 90's cr250r. but i understand why people do get them.

 

i think what is pictured is the rs250. im not to familiar with them. You can pick up an early 90's for under 5,000. for reference

or perhaps a late ninties with goodies for around 10k reference #2

 

reviling i assume you saw this but here is what got me interested
