AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This Kawasaki F8 Bison 250 cc has been fully revised and restored. New paintwork.
The De 250 F8 Bison is an exceptionally powerful motorcycle with a high-quality chassis. This gives it outstanding off-road capabilities.
The successor of the 1969 250 F4, the 250 F8 Bison, has the same chassis as the 350 Big Horn, but with a 250 cc engine.
The F8 Bison was produced in two production years: 1971 and 1972.
This beauty is from 1971 and was imported into the Netherlands in 2025. This model has never been available on the market in Europe, making it rare.
The engine block has been fully rebuilt, the fork machined, seals and oil rings replaced, new chain and sprockets installed, new tires fitted, new contact points for the ignition, and new brakes.
250cc
Rotating exhaust
5 speeds
Hatta (adjustable) front fork
The costs of the restoration are already nearly 6000 euros in total.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
