Hello all!

Just paid for a 2009 GZ250 with only 624 miles on it. Though I haven't taken delivery yet. (http://www.wowmotorcycles.com/)

If their link still works, here are the shop's pictures: http://www.wowmotorcycles.com/view-bike ... 0&source=S

Have since been going through this site and I keep seeing references to a "carburetor shim" mod.
As I live in a hilly region, how much impact would this have?

It has been 20+ years since I have been on a motor bike, so I figured this is a good re-entry point for switching to a lower gas cost commuter plan.

(My first bike was a Yamaha 650-overhead oil cooled. A beast compared to this one...)
