AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

For sale is a very rare collector’s item: a 1984 Kawasaki KXT250 Tecate.
This model is extremely hard to find — it was originally produced for the U.S. market, where it even had its own racing series.

The machine is brutally powerful, fast, and dangerous — definitely not for beginners.
This particular unit is more suited for a collection: it has been restored (not by me), and I simply brought it back to life after a long sleep.

Known non-original parts and modifications:
• The entire bike has been repainted.
• The lower parts of the fenders were painted black.
• The front headlight is not original.
• The carburetor is a replica, but I will also include the original carburetor.
• One of the front forks shows oil leakage (seal needs replacement).

The engine starts easily, runs smoothly, and is very strong — one of the most powerful machines in its class.

Similar models, when they rarely appear on foreign websites, usually sell for $8,000–$10,000, often in worn-out condition.
This one can still be refined further if someone wants a fully factory-original appearance (e.g., replacing the headlight), but even as it is now, it’s a beautiful, unique, and highly collectible piece.

Important: this is not the smaller 185cc version — this is not a toy.
Most mechanical parts are identical to the KX250, so maintenance and parts sourcing are easy.

The Kawasaki is located in Hungary, and I can assist with shipping within the EU.

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.
