NX250?

I have an opportunity to pick up an extremely low mile 1989 Honda NX250, but can't seem to find much about them. Anyone have any info pro or con as to the prospects as a L/D ride? Availability of parts etc. or durability issues? The more info of any kind the better.

Hi Steve,
I don't know much about the NX250, but I would guess that it uses the same engine as the XR250L, since they use the XR650L engine in the NX650.

The entire XR line is extrmely reliable and relatively easy to find parts for. I can't remember an XR made in the last ten or so years that wasn't a good bike.

Sorry I can't give you much more info than that!
