The TS250ERX is biased towards street use and in this mode its completely at home, having sweet handling and good all round manners. The TS comes into its own once out of 1st gear, the midrange punch from the combined piston-port, reed-valve engine kicks in to make the middle three gear ratios to chew through the miles, the whole design makes perfect sense, being easy to throw around while remaining stable and predictable.
