When I was a child in the mid 80s, I used to spend my summers in the sea resort of Santa Severa, just north of Rome (Italy). I still remember being totally captured by a guy who used to park his RG 500 along the sidewalk besides the beach. Quite a sporty ride to go to the beach don’t you think ? I thought the sea salt and the sand wouldn’t do any good to the 2 stroker. What was most special though, were 4 hand crafted “Jolly Moto” expansion exhaust pipes that made the bike look and sound like a race machine. What we have here is the little brother of the RG 500, the featherlight V powered RG 250.

This sample found in Germany was ridden between 1989 and 1995. It was then sent to sleep for a few years, until in 2010, when the owner gave it a fresh refurbish with some track ready components as described below (including those nostalgia inducing Jolly pipes):
Due to lack of time I am selling my Suzuki RGV 250 VJ21. The machine has hardly run, from 1989 to 1995 RGV was used on the road, then un-resigned and put to sleep until October 2010. As of 2010, was brought back to life, but since then only little driven.

The RGV has a very low mileage of just below 7000 km. The repainted rims always cause some suspicion, but the picture with the very clean and scratch less cockpit might re-assure you.
With about a week to go and no reserve in place, this could be a bargain. Considering that many Germans are on holidays in these days, the Suzuki might go unnoticed. That won’t be the case if you are a RSBFS reader 🙂
