The TV250 Wolf was introduced in June 1988 with a type code VJ21A. The Wolf 250 was basically a naked version of the RGV250, with some modifications. The Wolf had different turning signals, front fork and brakes, black-coated engine, gear ratio and some other details like kick pedal.

The 1989 year's VT250K was introduced in February 1989. Although the J and K models look the same, many modifcations were made for the second model year. I have seen a list of 28 modfications, from different gear ratios to modification of CDI control units, carburettors and diverse engine parts. The changes were all minor updates and refinements of the product but many parts, both in engine and in the body, were updated. The front tire was changed from 110/70-17 53h to 110/70-17 54h. The overall weight of the bike was increased by 3 kg (6.6 lbs).

Starting frame number: VJ21A-118699.
Colors: Red, Black, Charcoal Metallic (new color).

The 1990 year's VT250L was introduced in December 1989. Again, some modifications were made for the next model year. The most obvious difference is the new colors on the Suzuki and Wolf stickers. Still, quite many modifications were made to the bike, from new fuel tank cap to updated electrical system.
