1990 Yamaha TZR250

Click here for an VINData Motorcycle History Report on this 1990 Yamaha TZR250.

Loosely based on Yamaha’s TZ250 racer, the TZR was a 2-stroke sportbike built between ’86 and ’99 – in 1986 it was the first production 250cc motorcycle to lap Isle of Man’s TT course at over 100 miles per hour.

The 3MA got a reverse cylinder design – the carb was in the front, and the exhaust was out of the rear of the cylinders. This in combination with revised timing bumped power up to about 60 horsepower. When restricted for the Japanese market, this bike made 45 horsepower.

Dual exhaust pipes out of the tail sections were just like what Yamaha did on the ’89 YZR250 GP race bike.

This example is VIN: 3MA006602. The seller imported the bike from Japan one year ago and states, “Seen it and had to have it!” He is seller to thin the heard.

During his ownership, the seller has covered approximately 20 miles. The odometer shows 4,451 kilometers (2,765 miles).
