Excellant

Hey Bad Mojo,

I am new to the forum and to my GZ (2000). Can you please tell me what kind of bags are on your bike, where you got them, and how they are mounted? They look really nice. My passenger seat is off at present and I can't carry a thing on my bike. I carried my Chinese dinner home in a bag on my wrist, not the best way.

Thanks very much.

Bad Mojo,

I forgot to mention the stands. They are exactly what I need and I have copied the measurements. I have no saws but my brother will help or make these for me. After lubricating the chain once when I brought the bike home, I knew there has to be a better way....

Just go to a JC Whitney website and look around. They have lots of stuff to fatten up your wish list.

Yeah, that's a dangerous path you're suggesting there... :)

Is this the one?

The end of it looks somewhat different than David Bo's image, but that's the only one I can find for the GZ250.

Badbob and others here...I am new to motorcycles...have built two street rods from the ground up...motor and wiring and front suspension clips...

I have owned my 2000 green GZ for less than two weeks now...had some problems but I am correcting them...

I built my stands as Badbob showed and they work absolutely great.....easy to put the bike up on the stands...had my doubts...not any more.

Thank you ...Thank you

Hi all,

I just sold my bike and forgot to give away the stands I'd made. Does anybody want mine? I'll sell them for $30 OBO plus the cost of shipping and save you the time and the trip to the hardware store. :) As you can see, I've improved on the design slightly to make it easier to build.
