Found a bike on British
Ebay. that I hadn't heard of before.
1984 Yamaha SRX250 (note rusty chain!)
Not a model sold in the UK, the SRX just looks so light and neat.
Some version have a round headlight, some a square, and most that I could find on the Web had a neat half fairing.
Technical stuff:
Friend had a SRX600. It was a pig to kick-start. Most big singles are. He loved the bike, but hated the grief. He ended up buying a grey-import SRX400. A Japanese home-market version with an electric start. He had looked at the 250, but wanted something bigger. The Japanese mostly get 250/400 versions of bigger bikes that get sold in Europe/USA.
