The Honda VTR250 was only sold in the US for three years. Despite the simple nature – a liquid cooled 250cc engine with a six-speed transmission and an inboard front disc, it’s become quite the cult bike for fans of small-displacement motors.
For people who don’t mind small engines, this is truly a great all-arounder, and it will be a classic. You could attain 90mpg if you babied it, but still do 95mph if you needed it. Some might consider the riding position to be a bit cramped, but it’s very versatile, and it checks off the right boxes for a little bike. It’s light, nimble, and in a very 80’s way, good looking to boot.
This example has 5,000 miles and is claimed to be in great shape. It’s got original paint, new tires, and a new battery. Find this baby Interceptor for sale here on Craigslist in New Brighton, Minnesota for $1,500.
