Honda VTR250

The Honda Interceptor VTR250 was sold only in the United States from 1988 to 1990, with moderate changes occurring over the three model years. With a four-stroke liquid-cooled DOHC V-twin engine and a six-speed transmission, VTR250 was the smallest of Honda's Interceptor line of motorcycles. The 1990 model had a 17-inch front wheel and the front disc brakes were external. == 1997–2018 ==

Introduced in 1997, the newer VTR250 has been compared to the Ducati Monster in appearance, with a trellis frame, V-twin engine, and initially a similar instrument layout, with no tachometer. The transmission was changed from six-speeds to five. In 2003, the instrument panel was updated to include a tachometer on the right side and move the warning lights and indicator-on to below both analogue displays. The 2009 model VTR250 saw the first major design changes since the instrument panel update. With a redesigned rear end and midsection, the 2009 model also has electronic fuel injection. The VTR250 is widely sold in the Asia Pacific region but not in the US. The 2009 model VTR250 was imported to Europe. It was officially imported into Australia between 1998 and 2007, with the 2009 model being reintroduced mid-2009. == Specifications ==
