Re: Brakes Help
I just ordered a set today from O'Reilly's. Got sick of the squeaking too.

Re: Top speed for GZ250
I do have one for this bike. However, it was my intent to learn and get comfortable on the bike first without the windshield. Once I've got the skills learned for riding and countering the wind,...

Re: Thread Header
Something squirrelly with your graphics card maybe? Mine all look razor-sharp. Strange.

Re: Top speed for GZ250
Yeesh. Screw that! If I wanted a crotch rocket, I'd buy one. I get weirded out enough just shifting my butt at speed. Much less trying to lay down on the bike!...

Re: Milestones
As far as boots go, I've just been wearing my steel-toed work boots. Oil and slip resistant sole. But they tend to be VERY dirty because of work. I might buy another pair of 'em just for riding,...

Re: Deer me that was close
:haha2: Funny you should say that. Whenever I recount the story I always say the deer committed suicide on my driver's mirror.
**EDIT** Woo hoo! I'm bona-fide now! Post 25 baby. :cool:

Re: Luggage Rack

Re: Clock for the GZ
They've got some pretty cool stuff there. A bit pricey for a clock, but it looks stock. Sweet.

Stupid deer. Nature sucks sometime. I have hit one deer in my car. Killed her, and the car got off with much less damage than could have happened at highway speeds. Luckily I saw her and had...

Re: Spark plug and oil filter
O-rings are cheap. In my line of work, multi-million dollar oil wells can be junked due to a 25 cent o-ring failure. It just doesn't make sense not to change them when they're so cheap. It only...

Re: Exhaust - Complete system for the GZ50
It just boggles my mind how some things for bikes can be so stinkin' expensive! For crying out loud, I could put on a full custom dual exhaust with headers on my SVT Contour for less than that. And...

Re: A pre-ride Ride Report
Hm. Doesn't look like I'll be able to make that. I'm still 150 miles offshore, and won't be back for a few days yet. Enjoy the ride!

Re: A pre-ride Ride Report
When do you anticipate being in Baton Rouge? It's not too far from where I work. Maybe 90 miles. Let me know, and I might be able to ride up and meet you.

Re: Saw my first GZ250 on the road...
Our Suzuki dealer doesn't even have any C50s in stock, much less a GZ. Smallest cruiser they've got in stock is a C90. And they definitley DO try and steer you to the larger bikes. Schmucks.

My MSF class used mostly GZs. They had a couple of Eliminators and only one Rebel. I have yet to see another one on the road in Houma, but one of my bike riding co-workers said he used to have the...
