Another killer 250 two stroke. I love it when these pop up. RSBFS featured a good looking NSR250 MC18 a few days back and now we have this – an ’89 TZR250 3MA with the rare and awesome parallel twin, not a V. Still a 50 hp bike, but this set up has the cool exhaust out the tail, similar to the GP bikes of the era. Cool, cool and cool.
Here’s the information from the seller-
I have a rare reverse cylinder Yamaha TZR250 3MA with clear title for sale. This bike is completely stock in very nice original condition and runs great. The bike has no issues and is ready to ride. Stock, unmolested two stroke bikes are difficult to find, especially in such exceptional condition.
The frame is nice, clean and straight as are the wheels and rotors, no evidence of crash damage on this bike. The bike is not museum quality but very nice.
Feel free to call me for any additional information or photos. I live in central West Virginia and have the bike for sale locally, so I reserve the right to end the auction early.
And photos for your viewing pleasure-
The seller is up front saying this is no museum piece. And that appears to be the case. It does have some mileage on it and appears to have the wear you would expect on a bike this age. The seller also states that the bike is completely stock and that is rare in any bike this age, but a two stroke is especially rare here in the U.S. The seller also lists a clear title.
So if you want something you can ride and something that is uber cool, you may be in luck here. Make up your mind then check the auction out!

Nice bike (then O am partial to the 3MA, having one ;)) — but why do people bid so early on an item they want that they KNOW will atract a lot of bidding attention?
All early bidding does is drive the final price up. eBay needs to do a better job of screening schill bids, which I think many early flurries of bidding are.
Kinda like when a bike is posted on this website..
Have you ever noticed that once this site picks up an ebay listing . the price and the bidding of the bike increases dramatically??
The name of the game is to get the best and highest price when you are selling something. Thats the whole concept behind an auction!!!! Looks like you may have to be happy with having just one TZR 🙁
BTW – This TZR is well worth the current bid …
“The name of the game is to get the best and highest price when you are selling something. ”
And the name of the game for the BUYER is to pay the lowest price possible when you are buying something.
For every bike posted I am a potential buyer, not the seller, so my interest is in paying a low price, not lining someone elses pocket 😉
I wonder if they would trade me for one of my MC21’s? 🙂
trade an MC21 for a TZR, you are crazy man!!
unless you have a base model and/or it’s in real crap shape…!!
I love TZR’s and I have two MC 21’s and besides a 3MA would look sick next to the MC21 n VJ22!
Now you are just a hoarder…! Nice collection Joe!
