    G’day boys and girls, thanks for having me. I’ve just returned to riding and currently on an 89 Honda vt250 spada, and building a vtr250 for my wife to do her L’s on.

    Welcome.
    The VT250s are a great little family of bikes.
    Capable and comfortable. For smaller riders at least.

    The Spada is quite underrated for a bike that only run for a production period of 12 months.
    Apparently killed of by the bean counters rather than being a sales flop.


    Peter.

    Thanks Peter, it’s a lovely little bike and more than capable of having fun on. I’m 6’1” and 125kg and in spite of this, the little spada never complains. Much more power and torque than the current crop of small displacement bikes.
