I like that, it's like a beefed up TW200. Still has the fat tires, the low profile, the lower mount front fender. I bet it's a tough little bugger!

Looks utilitarian and tough to me, strap your gear on the rack at the back and off for an off road camping adventure or hunting trip.

I wonder how much? I am a big fan of the Rokon Trail-breaker 2x2 for camping/fishing/hunting.
Ride like you mean it.

You could pull a freight train up a mountain with that bike... the thing's a tank.

The Y125... gets almost 200 mpg. Could this be the future?
That's a darling little bike, that one!

I kind of like that if the seat was done differently.

+1 it's sort of old fashioned-cute.A different seat would complete it, and 200mpg would be nice.

That would be a great commuter bike. You could probably get away with parking it with the bicycles and save on parking fees. Quote:

Finless 125 single....I love the look of it!  I wonder if it's water-cooled?

Yup, Joe... the SR 250 is a sweet looking bike alright. And with a little imagination, just look what you can do to them!

Some of the small Yamaha scooters have enclosed cooling with coolant sealed into the system.No radiator to check or fill.
I'd guess it's probably that system.
