1990 SUZUKI RGV250 VJ22

KEY FACTS

  • A superb, fully rebuilt example of Suzuki’s classic race-replica high performance sports bike.
  • It is built around a 90-degree two-cylinder two-stroke 249cc V-Twin, which produces 62 horsepower and is coupled to a six-speed manual transmission.
  • This Australian-delivered bike benefits from a complete rebuild with all new OEM parts and has been refinished in the famous Lucky Strike livery, which was not made available for the domestic market.

EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES

  • Following the RG250 Gamma, the RGV250 was a race-replica based on the marque’s 250cc Grand Prix bikes of the era - the RGV Gamma V-2.
  • The VJ22-designated motor features Suzuki Advanced Power Control engine management, electronically-controlled Mikuni carburettors, Automatic Exhaust Timing Control and Multiple Digital Ignition System.
  • Previously finished with blue and white paintwork (code 3SH) this example has been refinished in a Lucky Strike livery.
  • The bike is presented in rebuilt condition, but maintains the original factory specification by using OEM parts.
  • The engine was given a top-end rebuild including new pistons and rings, and the carburettors were also rebuilt.
  • Furthermore, the front and rear brakes were rebuilt with OEM pistons and seals, and all of the bike’s seals and bearings have been replaced.
  • All of the cables have also been renewed, along with the chain, battery and kick starter.
  • The original fairings were professionally repainted by A1 Motorcycles on the Gold Coast, with decals provided by Image Works in the United Kingdom.
  • New Pirelli tyres, an OEM windscreen and replacement fairing fittings were also installed.
  • The bike will be sold with receipts for all of the OEM parts purchased during its rebuild.

CONDITION

  • The recently repainted Lucky Strike livery is described by the seller as being in excellent overall condition, and there are no noted blemishes or defects.
  • The replacement windscreen, fairings, wheels and forks also present particularly well, as do the seat, handlebar grips and gauges, though a strap is missing from the pillion seat.
  • The bike is mechanically strong thanks to the recent rebuild, and is reported to be free of any electrical faults.

SERVICE HISTORY

  • This RGV250’s most recent routine maintenance was carried out at 52,900km in preparation for its sale, and it has not required any additional recent service work due to the comprehensive rebuild.

SUMMARY

Mechanically overhauled and refinished in an eye-catching race-replica livery, this 1990 Suzuki RGV250 is a fantastic example of the motorsport-inspired sports bike. Presented in impressive condition throughout and fitted refreshed with a number of new OEM parts, it would make a fine display piece, but would be best enjoyed on the open road, where its next owner can experience its thrilling handling and impressive power delivery.
