Our next March Madness special Featured Listings is this great looking Aprilia RS250 Cup bike. These were used as a one make support series and thus sold as racebikes without lights, signals, etc… As most were used for that very purpose, there are few that remain like this one! These are based on the MKII RS250 which sports Suzuki’s VJ23 VJ22 power plant with massaging from Aprilia. The fairings are fiberglass and very lightweight.
We’d like to thank Tom for helping to support the site with a Featured Listing.

from the seller:
Up for your consideration: 1999 RS250 Cup. Only 267 miles from new. I bought this bike a few months ago with full intention to track it. I changed directions to another bike/class so I am offering the 250 for sale. Since I intended to track it I bought new aftermarket race bodywork and windshield which was installed/fitted and professionally painted. The original bodywork and windshield are in excellent condition and included. The bike was race prepped at SBK Corse in Laguna Hills, CA. This included brake and coolant flush, tuning, etc. The original tires (14 years old) were on the bike which I had replaced with new Dunlop slicks.
This is like buying a brand new factory fresh RS. Price is $8500 which I am offering here before going to Ebay auction. Race or display …
Just so no one is mislead, Suzuki sold them the VJ22, not VJ23 motor.
FWIW,
Joel
I thought the 95-97 has the VJ22 motors and the 98+ were VJ23? Were the challenge bikes different?

VJ22 with 22D60 SAPC box.
My apologies, this has been a long held misconception on my part!
