Yes, it really IS electric yellow!

Sadly, trailer not included. :(
 
I like the yellow for visibility...I'll also wear a bright-yellow helmet and a hi-visibility chartreuse jacket.

The 250's generally run $1500-2500 used. Older ones & used Chinese bikes at the lower end, newer Hondas, Yamahas, and Kymcos at the higher end. Note: anything bigger than a 50cc will require a motorcycle licence.

It's a 250 and makes JUST 18hp?

The cbr250 is a single cylinder 250 and makes

Even if you give it a tune or did soem slight adjustments, you could squeeze 21-23hp like honda does with the cbr250. Or just make it built for higher RPMs.

I don't think the transmission would like that. Also, it runs out of breath at ~8000.
