Up for grabs here is a ’94 Suzuki RGV 250 (VJ22), one rare and very desirable two-stroke. Photos do not show the bike completely put together, but the seller claims it’s all there and that the bike has been gone through thoroughly with many upgrades.
Here’s the seller’s information-
Up for sale is my 1994 Suzuki RGV 250 ‘Lucky Strike’ Replica. It has 12,000 Kilometers. These bikes were produced to compete in the Moto GP series. I have brought this bike back to life and it’s just sitting in Storage not being used. Bike is complete from front to tail. The only thing I haven’t done is bleed the front brakes. Pictures were taken while re installing fairings. Bike does have tank. Painted solid red to match. I listed this on Craigslist for 10,000 but due to the time of year have dropped it to half that. Any questions please send me an email. NO RESERVE!

Street Legal Oil Injected 250 2Storke. Super Fast and will Out-corner anything. Have owner and service manual (in english) along with perforance guides. I have put less then 500 miles on this bike in the last 4 years. Runs and rides excellent. Practicaly brand new.
I have done a build thread on the rgv250.co.uk forum. If you would like to read it let me know and I will get you a copy.
And the pics-
Photos are a little strange for a bike like this, to be perfectly honest. You would expect something a little more thorough, especially for a build that has been chronicled on a enthusiast site. I would definitely want to see that thread and get the lowdown on exactly how the bike has been put together. And personally I would like to see some pics of the bike completely put together. Maybe I’m paranoid, but it would make me more comfortable.
The seller is asking $6,000 to start and since the auction has no reserve, that’s what it will take to take the bike home. I have seen these bikes run up to the $10k mark, usually low mileage and SP models. The seller said the bike was listed at $10k and now is almost half that. Even thought the seller lists it as a replica, this could be a good deal. However, I would want to make sure the bike is complete and the build has been done right.
So here’s an opportunity for a great two-stroke with a title, in one of the best looking packages ever. If those things matter to you (and they should) give this bike a look!
