I couldn't be unfaithful to my storm but I was looking for a lil new bit off stuff on the side
I saw this sexy lil bugger flirting her stuff and I knew I just had to have her

25 years old and still goes like a fiddlers elbow



just thought I'd share her with you lads

[alternative_vtr]

Awesome, love it. Would love a XT500 Supermoto one day

[VTRDark]

Very nice. I had and old XL 250 off roader years ago. Now where's my kickstart gone.

klx250??? used to have a green one

jeez it could wheelie good lol! i could hardly touch the ground on it but didnt need to once it took off!

[BigVeeGrin]

want one! Had an MTX200 once, superb bike for belting around London

[AMCQ46]

Bloody good condition for an off road bike.. Almost to good to get dirty

[BigVeeGrin]

Been looking on eBay at kl km Xl XR etc as always fancied one for winter and poss green lanes etc. not cheap - early mid 90s stuff for a grand or over.

[lumpyv]

jealous!! would it be rude to ask how much you gave for it. and has the storm started giving you the cold shoulder, silent treatment "my mother warned me " etc etc yet

[Private Reg]

thanks for the admiring looks guys its a KLR250. Not really got a lot of poke but enough to make you grin and remember days gone by. Had the XT250 ER185 TS250 as youngster

I bought it as a winter hack and try a lil off roading but once i got right into her knickers and gave her a good clean down and scrub up to finish off the great jop the previous owner had done I realised she may be a lil to nice to trash The previous owner had stripped it right down and replaced EVERY nut and bolt with a brand new stainless steel replacement...... Yep, she's a kick starter and being vertically challenged (5ft 10) its pretty difficult to balance on tiptoes and kick at the same time I daren't tell you how much I've paid as when I've finished having fun I may put it on here for sale.
The storm still gets the nod though.

Wow someone else who had an XT250, i take it you mean a 1980's one like this



Loved it had it for 15 years until a scrote nicked it.

[BigVeeGrin]

these were mine 'back in the day'

[AMCQ46]

BVG, love the old KE Kawasaki

We had the XL100 then 185 then 250 on the farm, rode then into the ground then sold the wreck to kids in the village

Yep, thats the one! loved the gold wheels. I think at that time or there abouts, there was a bond film out and the bad guys were flying about on XT500's on ice...can't remember the film but I loved that bike. I had an RD125 and done a straight swap.

[Private Reg]

Mate had a KE100 and my elder Bro had the KE125....jeez seems like yesterday I topped them both with the Suzuki ER185 though

[lumpyv]

i had a red / black yamaha dt 175 http://www.johnnystoybox.com/dt125.jpg
