Sure thing, I'll put some photos up in a few minutes. As for the GZ, I want to add one as a second motorcycle. I rode one during the MSF course and damn these bikes are a hoot when in their element. For me the ex250 is the "big-boy" in the garage (I have no reason to go over 100mph, and I already have it equipped to go touring, 5+ hour rides are easy), with my mountain bike being the smallest, and I'm wanting a middle bike to fill the gap. Besides, I just like small single-cylinder and parallel-twin powered motorcycles. WIll try and get those pics up soon.
BTW, S.O.L.A.S. is an acronym for Safety of Life at Sea, it's the reflective tape that the Navy uses. It's just as reflective (if not more) than the stuff the DOT people use and keeps its' reflectiveness for 5 or so years, comes in bunches of colors too. You ever see the reflective rim-stripes on some bikes? Same stuff, though not sure if those are actually SOLAS or some other kind of reflective material.
Ride safe
