It went for only $4500, it was clean and low mileage. If you wanted a VTR250 for your collection/museum, you won't do much better

Instead of people buying to hoard, why not just ride them ?

I was using "collection/museum" optimistically. There is definitely value in preserving some things so other people can see them. I'm not sure I've ever seen a VTR250 in person myself

They're probably just using it for storage on the shelf, since it doesn't appear to be installed in the bike
 
OK I shouldn't have clicked on that. When an old Honda gets the covfefe racer treatment it's usually just a twin, but somebody did that to a CB400F?

It's got a bunch of aftermarket electrical bits listed that may or may not play well with each other.
