What can the brains trust tell me about a MVX250
« on: July 18, 2012, 05:47:55 AM »
I have a lead on a MVX250, I know nothing about them, I'm going to have a looksee in the next couple of days, I have no idea on the condition of it, I have only seen a couple of crappy mobile phone pics, and I'm not even sure how much they want for it, all I know is it is for sale.  It looks like it is all there from the pics, but I'm not sure if it runs or not.  I was wondering if there is anyone out there with any experiences with these little bikes, from what I have read they are a V3 2stroke, and a quick little bike.



This is not the bike in question, only an example of it.

I missed out on it anyway, he only wanted $300 for it, I was only going to get it as an interesting bike to have, considering it is a V3.  I have heard they have issues with overheating the rear cylinder.
