I saw RS for the first time when I was crazy about MotoGP back in early 90's. Ever since, this has been my dream bike. I love two strokes.

Whenever I can afford for a track bike, this will be the one. :)

I didn't know they were making RS250's still. In 04 they only had the 125

They don't. After Aprilia got took over by Piaggio, they stopped making it. I think it's been over 2 years. There are still some brand new around, but not too long.

Brand new now is about 8.500 USD. It used to be 10.500 USD for 2002.
Used with pretty good shape you can get around 4.000 to 6.000 USD. Some are even around 3.000 to 4.000 USD.

I'm gonna get a used one anyways. For the track, I don't see any reason to have a brand new.

Just makes me sad it's gonna be harder to see these beautiful bikes. And also gonna be harder to get parts.

Two strokes are fading from the street. A lot of major manufactures are drifting away from two strokes. Eventually, they are going to stop making it by 2007.

I'm helping my friend to find his 250. We are currently looking for RS and NSR.

Yeah, he's gonna beat me. But I get to ride his. :clap:
