250 vstrom - SOLD
« on: April 19, 2021, 08:20:31 »
I've just bought a new 250 vstrom and sadly I've made a big mistake as it's the most uncomfortable bike I've ever had only done 50miles so it's got to go
£3000 if anyone is interested

Hi Jim,
Sorry to hear this bike isn't for you. I'd say the above isn't the best advert for the bike. You'll get more takers adding some pictures and possibly adding a bit more detail to the bike. I know others on here have the 250 and like it so the bike isn't terrible (how I read the above), it's just not right for you  :thumb:
Good luck with the sale and hope you get something more to your liking.

Sorry to hear that, is there not anything you could do with the seat / bars?
Can I ask (for a friend), what registration year and colour combination please?

Sorry to hear you're not happy with the bike, but I would not keep on riding a bike that just doesn't fit my needs either. Good luck with the sale.
This doesn't last forever, so do it while you can.

I have one and I agree its not a great seat, I use an Airhawk with mine and that's made a big difference.
