About this model
About the Suzuki RGV 250
The Suzuki RGV250 is an iconic Japanese sports motorcycle powered by a water-cooled V-twin two-stroke of 249 cc, produced by Suzuki from 1988 to 1996. The RGV250 was developed as a road-legal version of the factory racer and is characterised by an extremely low weight of around 149 kg, a high rev ceiling and the fast power delivery typical of a two-stroke V-twin. Suzuki produced three generations: the VJ21 (1988–1989), VJ22 (1990–1993) and VJ23 (1994–1996), each with improved chassis and engine specifications. The RGV competed directly with the Honda NSR250R and Yamaha TZR250.
The RGV250 is not a beginner's motorcycle: the lower rev range delivers little power and the extreme powerband demands real skill. It targets experienced sport riders who want the raw two-stroke experience on the road and circuit. Well-maintained examples have become appreciating classics; original SP variants are particularly rare and sought after.

Before you buy
What to check before buying
- Check the exhaust valve system (SAEC) for correct operation: a worn or seized exhaust valve produces a flat power curve and is a very common problem.
- Inspect the pistons and cylinder heads for wear: two-stroke 250s require frequent top-end rebuilds; always ask for the engine service history.
- Check the carburettors for correct tuning and condition of the slide needle valves: the two Mikuni carbs gum up easily after extended storage.
- Verify the cooling system condition: a leaking water pump or hardened hoses cause overheating under hard use.
- Watch the fairing panels and their mounts: original Suzuki plastic has become brittle after 30+ years and replacement parts are scarce.
