Yes, its a fast bike, with a full arrow.s the bike can fly. Stock bike sucks! Consumption of petrol and 2t is higher then stock. Compare to its bro the 125, its a much more fun bike. Its not as problematic as the 125, but best is to full service, Eg.(Change pistons, pistons ring, cooler.....) your bike before you really ride this monster. And set a side 1-2K in case, 2-stroke is fun, but you don't know when there might be a problem. And the problem of a aprilla arn't cheap.

one piece of advise, get one that has a original print work so that u can see wats kind of accidents the bike met b4. its not problematic at all. for me just servcing n wear n tear.
-
its better to have a bike with scratches on the fairing then one with nice nice paint work but a dented or crooked main frame.
-
Don't think there are any left with original paint work. Even if there are, it's a re-sprayed original paintwork. FN-FP bikes are very old already... therefore the paintwork will fade without a new paint job.Originally posted by ihziur:one piece of advise, get one that has a original print work so that u can see wats kind of accidents the bike met b4. its not problematic at all. for me just servcing n wear n tear.

RS250 uses a Suzuki engine while the exterior is Aprilia. therfore parts can b replace by RGV250 (not the latest RGV 250 SP model) the parts is much more cheaper than the orginal Aprilia parts. and so not as problematic than 125.Originally posted by Ni+3KiDz:Is RS250 advisable 2 get??

servicing will b double since got 2 carb, 2pistons, 2 blocks, many things bcum 2 lah! so when u service price will b doubled lor!
anyway does plate really matter?
example u buy a FQ plate with mileage of 60K, goes to track often, while the othe FN plate, low mileage of 20K n doesnt go track!
which will u choose? obvious!
there r only very few FQ plate, should b 3.
but there r very few RS250 ard liao!
i got my RS250 for only 4 days n it need a overhual! setting a few Ks aside will really help.
price of the bike will depend on condition! anyway should cost ard 6K+, depends on the accessories, new parts, overhual...etc
anyway if u really interested, i m selling mine.
FN plate,with considerably low mileage, just top overhual with recipt, new pistons, rings, block service, valve..etc
full arrow system with single seater, 2nd party insurance still quite new, michelin pilot sport rear..etc
many new parts to b mentioned! but oso some wear parts! -
this bike is swee... i seen a single seater 1 b4..
------------------
Don't Flame Me. -
I also think of getting 1 in oct leh. Dunno how much will it cost by then? 5K? I hope lah...
Even though the RS250 uses RGV250 engine, the price still Italian price rite? Dun think can get its parts from Suzuki rite? I heard RGV250 parts even more diff to get than Aprilia parts... -
the red n purple original paint work cant b sprayed. the color cant b found in singapore. if import have to get from italy which is very expensive. i ask a spray job shop myself. my friend noe that guy well so wun cheat us. btw mine is a original paintwork and of coz there are a few scratches. FN plate and all original. if can sell i will buy class 2 bike liao. anyone interested can post.
-
anyway the original paint work not nice. no one will want to respray to the original one. there are a few original ones. i seen at least 2 more other than mine.
-
As for my case, i'll get a problem-free bike irregardless of the paintwork as most rider will like their bike to look nice... If the bike is problem-free than why care the paintwork? Original or not it depends on the condition... Dun be taken in by original paintwork... U can't judge a bike by it's paintwork...

a kin chia...
except for the stupid 2t..tink everyting is fine for RS250..
the maintenace ah...then hard to say.. -
of coz u cant judge a bike by the paint work but its just advisable to find one which is original.
the maintanence of the bike depends on how u ride it. u tua more than pay more for petrol and 2t. -
Yes i agreed 2 condition is more important than Paintwork! Paintwork can do later on surely cheaper than wat u spend on servicin a bad condition bike.
anoymous-Dunno y juz dun like it SORI no offence k :p juz like sum ppl hate one tin but others love it lor
ihziur-i tok e original paintwork is silver one??

Mmm... I will get a Rs250 when got some spare cash. Juz to wreak it on the track, as mine current bike is not mean for trackOriginally posted by Ni+3KiDz:Thx!! hayabusa u sound like u realli like dis bike?? so r u one of it proud owner b4?? Mmm... y do u recommend tat i overhaul it b4 i realli ride any special reason or meanin 2 it??
Oh yes, Don't save money on the servicing a 250. Just think, if you are to wreak this "babe" and its jams. It would cost you much then a "piston + rings" change. At least you service the inside, you can have no worry of that anymore.
This something i read on the net if you want to really maintain a 250
30,000 change piston + rings + gasket
15,000 change rings + gasket
:p -
original have 3 colours. silver, black and the red/purple one.
each colours i heard have less than 100 bikes in singapore. last time oso heard b4 that the black one is not available from singapore. -
italian price?Originally posted by RAIDER:I also think of getting 1 in oct leh. Dunno how much will it cost by then? 5K? I hope lah...

fyi, RS250 is the cheapest among the 250s.
parts confirm can get from RGV!
there r serveral RGV models. got 1 model, the RGV250SP( with dry clutch, ard FQ plate),
very hard to find parts!
the RVG250 gamma's parts can get. -
I used to own a RS250 MS aprilia design. Quite good for track. Not that comfortable for long distance travel. But the posture is aggresive. Cool!
-
RGV250 oso cheap mah. i was once quoted $7k for a FQ plate one.
