About the Honda VTR 250
The Honda VTR250 is a compact naked bike with a liquid-cooled 249cc V-twin. Unlike many 250cc sportbikes, it delivers power calmly and usefully, with a low seat and manageable dimensions. The V-twin gives it more character than a single without the complexity of an inline-four.
The VTR250 suits new riders and anyone seeking a light classic Japanese naked. Check the exact production series on imports because early and late Japanese versions differ. Inspect carburettors or injection, chain condition and exhaust corrosion; a well-tuned VTR starts and runs notably smoothly.

What to check before buying
- Check cold starting and even response from both cylinders; older carburettors foul after storage.
- Inspect chain, sprockets and swingarm bearings for wear.
- Inspect radiator, coolant hoses and water pump for leaks.
- Check exhaust and lower frame for corrosion on imports.
