I think witha Rebel250, I would just bite the bullet and go with a dirt bike setup, FMF/Supertrapp or something like that.  It would probably sound wicked with those 2 itty bitty cylinders.

Good report, Bobo,....but
You can buy leathers and/or a good helmet and/or other accessories w/ the price difference vs. a new Savage.


Would you believe, I bought the 2000 VLX with only 1,600 miles for $750?  It was a disabled guy who had not ridden in 3 years and could not wrench on the bike to get it going.  It was still $150 more than I paid for my 98 Savage.

No way I would give $5,000 for a VLX600.  I'd buy a used Sportster if I was going to shell out that kind of money.

After I took the motor and tires off, yeah...

There's disabled to get the gov't money, and REALLY disabled.  This was the former.
