It's not that bad really, the owner just really really likes orange anodised tat.

I'm almost disappointed its not got orange valve caps.
Saying that, the Spy Vs Spy front end is growing on me.

Everyone loves a 250 Wolf, however I though this one interesting because it's actually 'almost' sensible money for a 250 stroker.

It needs a fuel tank and fuel tap, if it's like a faired RGV you'll spend your whole life trying to get the jetting just right, only for the power valves to fall apart and eat the pistons.

Re: interesting bikes found randomly..
It's half the price of a faired RGV tho'
I'd never noticed before that the Wolf only got a single disc up front and a cheapy box section swingarm.

Single disc is odd, but I think the early RGV had that swingarm, the later ones had the banana arm and both exhausts on the right.
