Yamaha XT250

[Fishwishin]

I’ve spent the past couple of days on top of a Yammie XT250 for a riding class I took. I am by no stretch a seasoned motorcyclist. I have only had two CT110’s in the past and now my CT125. Until yesterday I had never even worked a clutch on a bike. I must say, the ZT250 was a lot of fun and I am tempted to run out and buy something similar. In the end though my wife and I got our CT125’s as something to do together and she will never get onto a bike with a clutch on it. I will end up just sticking with what we have because I do not need to cram anymore wheels in my garage, I already have 22 of them between all the bicycles, wife’s car, CT’s.
It was a blast, but no regrets!

XT's are sweet little bikes aren't they (the XT250 as well as the earlier XT225)! Seat height is actually about the same as our Trail 125's.

Yes, they are a sweet little bike, especially for shorter people like me (5'7''). I still think they're one of the most fun bikes I've ever had (right up there with my Honda Trail 125 and my TW200). Sadly, as I approach 80 years old, I've decided to let my TW200 go. But I'm going to keep the Trail 125 which will probably be the last motorcycle I will ever ride.
