Few motorcycles capture the spirit of the 1990s quite like the 1993 Suzuki RGV250 VJ22. Developed using technology taken directly from Suzuki’s Grand Prix racing programme, the RGV250 remains one of the most exciting and engaging lightweight sports bikes ever built. With its razor-sharp handling, lightweight chassis and exhilarating V-twin two-stroke engine, the VJ22 has earned legendary status amongst collectors and enthusiasts alike.

At the heart of the bike is Suzuki’s iconic 249cc liquid-cooled 90° V-twin two-stroke engine, delivering the unmistakable powerband, sound and character that made these machines famous. Weighing around 140kg dry, the RGV offers incredible agility and a riding experience that modern motorcycles simply can’t replicate.

This example has been fitted with a TYGA Performance exhaust system, one of the most sought-after upgrades available for the VJ22. Constructed from hand-welded stainless steel expansion chambers, the TYGA system not only looks fantastic but also helps unlock the engine’s true character with improved throttle response, stronger power delivery and the unmistakable soundtrack every two-stroke enthusiast loves. Whether you’re looking to add an appreciating Japanese classic to your collection, relive the glory days of 90s sports bikes or simply own one of the finest two-stroke machines ever produced, this RGV250 ticks all the right boxes.

Please note this motorcycle was recorded as a Category D insurance loss in 1999. It has since been repaired and has continued to be enjoyed on the road, making this a fantastic opportunity to own an increasingly rare Japanese two-stroke at a more accessible price point.

Due to the specialist nature of this motorcycle, its age, its two-stroke engine and its previous Category D insurance history, this vehicle is sold without an SJT Motorcycles warranty. Any prospective purchaser is welcome to inspect the motorcycle prior to purchase, and we encourage buyers to satisfy themselves that it meets their expectations before committing to buy.
