I think they're a grouse little bike, even if they don't
go into neutral when they're warm and they vibe like buggers
at about 4000.

The exhaust has a couple of restrictors which you could stand
to lose. You'd probably need to rejet though.

The ex had one and I rode it a fair bit. Lovely little bike, one of the
few 250's with that a little of that distinctive thing called character.

The vibes on the over run down through 4000 made it feel like there was
actually a motor underneath, and the thin rims and large wheels made it
a really sweet handler.

Not a lot of outright power, but what power it made was very usable.

A goodun these....
