This 2-stroke classic found in the UK could be what you are looking for. Lightweight, focused, fast enough and with a great soundtrack, what more would you want for a day on your local track ? Whether it will be the fast Donnington, the great and twisty Anglesey or the ever fun Cadwell Park, it’s all down to you. I’d take it to the modern Rockingham, as I reckon that the wide tracks with lots of grip are best suited for two strokers. With this bike it’s all about keeping momentum and lean angles.
Honda NSR250R For Sale on eBay UK
The current owner seems to have bought it under an impulse, as he has actually not had the chance to use it yet:
HONDA NSR250 MC18 (R-2J) RELUCTANTLY FOR SALE FOR SALE DUE TO LACK OF USE, OWNED SINCE APRIL 2012 AND NEVER USED DUE TO OTHER BIKES/PROJECTS REGISTERED AS 1989 ON G’REG, BUT I BELIEVE IT IS ACTUALLY THE 1988 MODEL SPECIFICATION NSR250R-2J STANDARD BIKE APART FROM “MOVISTAR” PAINT JOB WHICH IS NOT BRILLIANT, OK AS IT IS BUT WOULD BE BETTER WITH REPAINT IT IS DE-RESTRICTED, SIMPLE ON THIS MODEL, JUST DISCONNECT ONE WIRE!

With a starting bid of just below 2000 £ and lots of people away for their summer holiday, you could be riding your next event with a bike that essentially it is made for the race tracks…economically. If finding spare parts might be your concern, you’d better jump onto a couple of forums on the web to check the situation, before the auction is over. Obviously owning a Honda NSR 250 won’t be as having a CBR 600 RR, but if you are a reader of RSBFS.com, I don’t even need to mention that.
