Well.... Here's what I would do.... I am not that familiar with the GZ250 (...yet....), but I have had enough pos old farm equipment over the years with this exact same problem.......


I would take a set of jumper cables that are hooked up to a battery and put the ground somewhere on the bike, then touch the post of the starter with the positive cable clamp. If there is not enough room to touch the positive post with the jumper clamp without touching the bike, I would connect a wire to the positive post and let the other end just sit on the floor and touch the positive cable clamp to it. When you do this MAKE SURE the bike is in neutral. You'll know if its your starter then.


I suspect a bad ground. probably where your ground wire off your battery attaches to the bike.
