Trooper74 Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 (edited) I want to buy a 125 to 250 road legal enduro bike. Must have lights. I'm going to fit a smaller rear sprocket and use it as my daily ride ... My big V-Strom as a touring bike / weekend ride ... Any recommendations that are actually available .... Anyone got one for sale ? 2 Stroke friendly home .... but 4 stroke is probably more sensible for a daily ride ... Cash waiting ...... £3k max ......

Pie man Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 (edited) What budget. Honda CRF250 should meet your requirements. Edit: Or a Cheap TTR250 Edit Again: What used to be cheap ain't cheap anymore Edited March 7, 2023 by Pie man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manxie49 Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 CRF250 is a good little dual purpose, road legal bike, that with a little bit of tweaking is very capable off road. It’s what I used to have. Cheap and economical, parts are also cheap and it was pretty bomb proof. You can pick them up in reasonably good nick depending on budget.

Edit: Or a Cheap TTR250 Edit Again: What used to be cheap ain't cheap anymore Well, what about a 125 enduro type bike ... the reality is i want a high enduro style daily ride to commute 20 miles on b roads ... and occasional forest track rides..

bonio Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 I know it's not a 250, but a DRZ400SM would do what you want perfectly. And make you smile a lot. Perhaps a tad pricey... cheapest on autotrader is £3400. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are out there, auto trader has a good few, a few on gum tree as well, for private sales. Most of them, as Pie Man said are North of 3k though, so it all comes down to budget? They tend to hold their value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
