Reliable and economical 250cc four stroke with 6 gears- the perfect dual purpose commuter/trail bike.

• MITAS C19 front and MT43 road-legal tyres.
• Bashplate and new Works Connection frame guards.

• A new sprag clutch has been fitted - mainly as a precautionary measure.
• Dual start - electric AND kickstart

• Full speedo and idiot light cluster with speedo in kph
• Fully adjustable suspension front and rear to suit your riding style
• Suitable for someone who has passed the A2 as less than 33 kW.

A good example of this sought-after bike. It starts and runs well.

I bought this bike as one of a pair with a mate who imported them as they weren't being sold here in the UK at the time. I won an MCC Triple Award on it in 2003 and, other than the occasional LDT, it has been used solely for green laning. I liked it enough to buy another new TTR250 in 2004 and this TTR went on holiday to a mate who, unfortunately, was unable to use it much and so I bought it back. I have kept it taxed, MOTd and insured for my son to use but, sadly, he hasn't been able to for 3 years so its time for it to go.

The TTR has been carefully maintained but bears the usual scuffs and scrapes from green laning!

All spares are readily available by mail order from somewhere like Fowlers or over the counter at your local Yamaha dealer. Very little changed other than cosmetics between 1993 and 2004 so there are no worries about getting the correct spare part as can be the case with Honda XR250s etc.

There is a good range of after-market accessories for the TTRs see http://www.totallyttrs.com/ . Lots of information on this very popular and sought after bike at www.ttr250.com

There is also a very active owners group here.

Very economical and will do a day's trail riding on a tank of petrol. Plus it has an "all-day" comfy seat unlike more enduro-based machines.

The TR250 is a perfect beginner's trail bike but also suitable for the more experienced rider who realises that it isn't necessary to have a big engine to enjoy themselves on Devon's technical lanes.

There are a few cheaper TTRs around but the choice is yours. This one is in very good order - you won't be disappointed!

Excellent value at £1,750 

Cash on collection preferred please.
