Description

This 1981 Honda XL250S is a classic dual-purpose motorcycle that feels light, nimble and ready to tackle town streets and light trails alike. The upright riding position and simple chassis make it easy to ride and confidence-inspiring at low speeds. The engine runs cleanly and sounds healthy, giving a rewarding, characterful ride.

Cosmetically it shows age with marks across the bodywork and a dent in the tank, but corrosion looks limited and the bike is complete. Sold as-is and needing some recommissioning, it’s a practical project or a usable classic for someone who values mechanical simplicity and character over showroom condition. A great choice for weekend adventures.
