Post-Listing Update: This MVX250F did not attract any bids at $4,200, even after being relisted.
Two things you don’t expect to see in the world of motorcycles: a 2-stroke V3 engine, and a Honda that’s unreliable. You’ll get both with this Honda MVX250F!
Some consider this bike to be Honda’s first ‘real’ attempt at a 2-stroke sportbike, and it was only available in Japan and a few other countries in close proximity, like New Zealand. The V3 engine had two horizontal cylinders with a vertical cylinder that stuck up between them. Unfortunately, the engine was notoriously unreliable due to failure of the vertical rear cylinder – which caused an engine seizure. This bike was a rare utter failure from Honda, making it even more impressive to see one of these still alive. For more information, head on over to Tanshanomi’s Snap Judgments.
This specific Honda MVX250F has just 1,069 miles and looks to be in good shape. I adore the 80s bodywork and the 3 exhaust pipes – the only flaw seems to be the lower decals.
