Quick call for help!! I found myself wondering over to the RgV forum.I am scared and bewildered.Or is it time for a new project?

My friend has an RGV, they are pretty cool - very fast. Customer support is also a lot better...So I wouldn't be frightened, more like intrigued. Uh oh the diehards aren't gonna like this one!

Worse than that, I've got an RGV in my workshop at home, and an engine on the bench.........what does this all mean?

I bought one recently too , couldnt say no though it was only £150

NSR300R - Why did i ever have a 250...

A friend of mine got one the day after I bought my nsr...Beautiful but ALWAYS SECOND...

I'm loathed to call RGV's, an old mate of Billy and I had a VJ22 and it was an awesome bike.

Not too sure if this will work as it's linked straight from the RGV forum but to say it's on Mark Dent's Dynopro which means it'd read about 5bhp more on a Dynojet that's one hell of a chart for a 250.



I like them anyway

Who cares, its a 2 stroke, i was gona buy one, the only thing that stopped me was that i had never seen a NSR250 on the road. so NSR it had to be. if your effort is anything like your Fortuna NSR the rgv will turn out ace and i cant wait to see it.. WHAT ABOUT A 3XV????? I love em!!!

I like the 3xv as well.The RGV could be on the cards but the Yam is more likely unless a Rothmans 21 comes up.

If I could choose any 2fiddy, it would be the 3XV every time! (NSR aside)

The Yam, especially in SP and the RC SUGO spec they did, was the bomb... The drive on the 3XV is so strong compared even to the NSR's and they're pretty much a TZ250B in drag...

I would like a 3xv but they are hard to find.Any ideas anyone? Sorry Andy I know this is non Nsr chat!!!

Im in the process of getting 3xv

What about the Kawasaki KR1 (?). Saw one of these on a local auction site, anyone ridden it?

I've not ridden one, the RGV owning friend of mine had one before his VJ22, he said it was great and neither it or his RGV gave a spot of bother in years.
But they are a generation behind, thin (130*18 rear) crossply tyres as standard but there is nothing to them at under 125kg dry weight in full road trim. Minus the road kit and with a fibreglass fairing and race pipes it's going to weigh nothing, and they're dirt cheap.

This;

is a running KR1S wearing an RS250 body and spares inc WOW for £500 on the KR forum! If it'd been there before I bought my RVF...........

The thing on both the KR1 and RGV250 sides is they are full power (i.e. the best part of 60bhp) in standard form so most were left that way, especially when new.
The later KR1S was known for seizing but I'm not too sure how true that really is.
