The air-cooled RD 250 is the classic 247cc twin for buyers seeking a smaller RD. Match capacity and year; mechanical condition matters more than paint or decals.
The Yamaha RD 250 is an air-cooled 247cc two-stroke twin from the 1970s. It shares the classic RD layout with larger models, but offers a less aggressive delivery and a manageable size for relaxed touring. Its character comes from the light chassis, twin carburettors and the distinctive response of an oil-injected two-stroke.
For a used example, engine health and originality matter more than shiny paint. Check compression and crank noise, verify the oil-injection system, and assess brakes, suspension and wheel spokes as you would on a fifty-year-old motorcycle. A tidy, complete RD 250 is an accessible classic, but poor adjustment or long storage can quickly lead to expensive rebuild work.
A used Yamaha RD 250 costs €5,750 on average. Most cost €5,750 to €5,750. This is based on 1 motorcycles for sale now.
