The Enduro Craze was in full swing! Kawasaki sold tons of their Bighorn's, Yamaha had the DT's and Honda had the SL series 4-stroke singles, just what you'd expect from Honda. But somehow (was it just to proof they could do it?), all of a sudden Honda decided built a 2-stroke 250 Enduro! The world was shocked! Today, very few examples are still around other then in museums and private collections!
