2024 SG250 - Scrambler Edition ($2,995.00)
OLD SCHOOL COOL HAS NEVER BEEN MORE AFFORDABLE!

The CSC SG250 Scrambler Edition is a throw-back to the 1960s with a rugged twist. Building on the super-successful SG250 platform, the Scrambler Edition introduces key enhancements for off-road adventures.

The CSC SG250 Scrambler brings us back to why we love to ride. The Scrambler is handsome, yet rugged, stripped down to the essentials, and intentionally avoids complications. The SG250 is equipped with a proven 230cc, air-cooled counter-balanced engine. CSC has brought back the SG250, equipped with everything you need for heart-pumping, purist motorbike riding — and nothing you don't!

Key Features of the SG250 Scrambler Edition:

Motocross Handlebars: Strong, wide grip handlebars allow riders to sit more upright, enhancing control and comfort on rough terrain.
Knobby Shinko 244 Series Tires: These tires provide superior traction and stability for off-road riding, making the Scrambler Edition perfect for both city streets and dirt trails.
The 230cc motor used in the CSC SG250 (and the CSC TT250 Enduro) is a modernized version of the "world-design" motorcycle engine first developed by Honda back in 1975. Honda and other manufacturers wanted to export motorcycles into the growing market of Southeast Asia. But the economies of these countries were far behind Japan at the time. The engineers noted the contrast in motorcycle usage in these countries.

There were no motorcycle 'dealers' in these emerging markets, only local repair shops which disassembled and repaired motorcycles that were broken down. Customers brought their motorcycles in only when they had stopped running. The concept of routine maintenance was completely foreign to the motorbike owners.

To tap into these demanding markets, Honda developed a new motorcycle engine that was specifically designed to require minimal maintenance. The lightweight, short-pushrod overhead valve 125cc engine featured a gear-driven, single camshaft structure for both intake and exhaust. The shaft is located where one would find the cam-chain housing in a more conventional overhead cam engine. This engine was later manufactured in a new factory in Brazil for the growing market in South America. Honda introduced a new motorcycle for the South American market called the CG125 Titan.

Over 40 years later, the original CG125 patent has long-expired. Today, Zongshen, the manufacturer of the CSC SG250, has a modern factory that builds over 3 MILLION engines each year. Zongshen builds both a 125cc and a 230cc version of the old CG engine. CSC distributes only the 230cc version in its modern motorcycles, with the additional update of a counter-balancer. This dependable motor is available in both the CSC SG250 San Gabriel and the CSC TT250 Enduro.

By American standards, 230cc is considered small. But in the CSC SG250, this engine is placed in a motorcycle that weighs only 273 pounds! That gives the CSC SG250 Scrambler brisk acceleration and a cruising top end of 70 miles per hour! Fuel economy is typically over 65 miles per gallon. When combined with a four-gallon gas tank, this provides the rider with a range exceeding 200 miles.

CSC SG250 Scrambler owners tend to fall into two categories. First is riders who are new to motorcycles. These riders appreciate the nimble handling and performance of the 230cc engine in the lightweight chassis. New riders also enjoy the simplicity of the dash, controls, and especially the low-maintenance requirements of the SG250.

The second (and largest) category of CSC SG250 Scrambler owners are experienced bikers who already own several motorcycles. The scrambler-style appeals to experienced riders for its vintage and rebellious heritage. Its streamlined, minimalist, and retro. Experienced riders are attracted to the SG250 because of what it ISN'T. The SG250 Scrambler isn't high-tech. No electronic suspension; no surround-sound stereo; no trip computer; and no hassles! Just turn the key and ride OR stomp the kick starter for another reminder of a simpler time!

Many experienced riders have dreamed of rebuilding an old-school project bike. But most of these 'host' bikes from the 1970s and '80s require massive restoration or are only available for four or five times what they sold for NEW! A 12-month unlimited mileage warranty, and ships for $425.00 to most locations in the lower 48 states (some locations may incur additional surcharges). In store pickup is available. California buyers pay tax and license call for details.

The CSC SG250 Scrambler is faithful to the appearance of the old bikes, but also well-equipped with important features like 17-inch tires on spoke wheels, full instrumentation including a speedometer, tachometer, odometer, fuel gauge, gear indicator, neutral light. You have inverted front forks and adjustable rear reservoir shocks. Stopping power is provided by huge front and rear disc brakes, black exhaust.

Old bikes can't compete with the new CSC SG250 that includes a 300-watt alternator, a 2-person seat plus rubber-cushioned foot pegs for driver and passenger, and even a locking gas cap. All these convenience features are STANDARD equipment on the CSC SG250 Scrambler.

The CSC SG250 Scrambler is an unmatched value. The proven dependable and economical 230cc motor is paired with a huge list of standard features that cannot be duplicated elsewhere for TWICE the price!


A trifecta of Pre-Unit Bullets: a Red Deluxe 500, a Green Standard 500, and a Black ES 350.
