The weird combination of wire wheels and futuristic styling (in a 1980s, Street Hawk sort of way) works surprisingly well on the NZ250, giving the bike a lithe, slim look. And with a dry weight of just 120kg it lived up to that appearance, too, managing to make the most of its 33bhp air-cooled twin. It was sold in Japan and Australia, but only for a year or so, making it rare just about everywhere today.
