Re: GZ250 "Street Fighter" - Work in Progress

I switched the Main Jet, but never shimmed the needle. I still want to do that, but just haven't yet.

Re: Exhaust

This is the one I used:

Jardine Rumbler Amazon Link (http://amzn.com/B000GS3LJS) which went on with no welding, just the supplied band clamps.

Re: Accessories 2000 GZ 4 Sale: Windshield, Bags, Sissybar,

Sorry, I don't. We do have a used parts shop near me though, if you still haven't found one I might be able to pick one up for you. PM me if you still need it.

Re: GZ250 "Street Fighter" - Work in Progress

Quite a few people have complained that the stock horn is not very loud, yet on my European GZ it's fine. I wonder if this could be yet another of the differences, to comply with some American nanny...

Re: GZ250 "Street Fighter" - Work in Progress

I put the new pipe on using the stock bracket. The Jardin muffler actually has a threaded hole on the inside that lined un with the stock. I measured the stock to the point before the stock...

I have only filled up the tank once, so I'll post MPG once it's all done. AS for chopping off the fender vs just removing it, I needed to put the plate and brake light somewhere, but after I put the...

Re: GZ250 "Street Fighter" - Work in Progress

This is exactly what I do. It's still interesting though at low speed, because of the need to operate the clutch. I accepted that riding around town on a bobber style bike, I'd be ok with hand...

Re: Accessories 2000 GZ 4 Sale: Windshield, Bags, Sissybar,

Sorry Terry I don't quite understand the question. Are you asking about the Harley seat I'm currently using (from the other thread) or something I'm selling here?

Re: Throttle stuck

SImple solutions are the best type. Make sure you really give it some attention though. That would suck to have it happen when you're riding.

Re: GZ250 "Street Fighter" - Work in Progress

Maybe. It does sound like we drew the short stick. You have many components that just seem to perform better than the US equivalents.

Re: going for it!

Agree with all of this :2tup: This is exactly what I did. The Jardine Muffler I used has a full Baffle in it to compensate for the much wider output. As long as you have some time, and are willing...

Re: 16T vs 15T sprockets

I'm not sure either, but with the 15T, I never got anywhere near that. Do you shift at a pretty high RPM?

Re: GZ250 "Street Fighter" - Work in Progress

The brake light is good. The handlebar blinkers are OK, but I use hand signals for every turn or lane change anyway. I do have one more plan for these though. See the holes at the end of the frame...

Harley Cop Bike Seat - A little big, but super comfortable.

I picked up a Harley cop-bike solo seat (the air compressor kind, minus the air piston), and installed it on my Street Fighter.

Here's what I've got so far.

This was a Red, '00 GZ250, stock with saddle bags, sissy bar and bag, highway bar, windshield, etc. I've stripped it down to this:
