Honda MVX 250 Sports Production

[Vincent]

I like this very much - it's rare, it has three cylinders and it's a two stroke - perfect.

"This beautiful sports production racer comes to us from Rimini, Italy.
(The MVX250) ..........is a crisp racer based on the Honda MVX 250 three cylinder model. You may be familiar with the Honda V3 from the GP racer, but this is the first of the street going two strokers offered by the company. You might think that this is an offshoot of the more popular NS400R three-banger from Honda, and you would be sort of right; the MVX 250 came first.
The MVX 250 was not the racer that you see here. No, the MVX250 was a slightly sporty commuter, not unlike the VT250 twin that was to come years later. What we have here is the engine and chassis from the MVX 250 wrapped up into a nice little racer. This thing looks pretty trick, and I’ll bet it is a blast to ride. The stock MVX pumped out about 40 ponies for a 300 pound machine – this one with pipes and other engine mods must surely be stronger – and lighter.
The MVX 250 was not without its share of problems. Honda utilized a larger connecting rod on the 3rd (back, vertical) cylinder in order to quell vibration, and there were several revisions over the model’s run. Even so, high mileage examples or abused machines tend to fail in this region as a general rule.
I could not find any information concerning a “sports production” version of the MVX 250, and so my assumption is that this is a unique build. If I am wrong I’m certain that the RSBFS readership will correct me in the comments section, and then we will have all learned something new. Regardless, this is a very clean looking bike, and one that I would love to take out on my next track day.
