I too have purchased another GZ. Bought a 2008 brand new [gray color] and traded it in for a new 2009 TU250 [still own] love the TU but missed the GZ. Tried to buy it back from the new owner but she won't budge, loved the bike to much to sell it. Found an idenical 2008 with 900 miles , bought it. Own and ride both 250's, very happy with both. Looking forward to a 500 mile trip in August, ,will take the GZ, its more suited for touring [ava. accessories, rear rack,saddle bags etc ] the TU does not have Suzuki support of accessories as yet. I did get with the help of a friend and fellow TU rider a rear luggage rack from Japan,expensive but works great. Suzuki is missing the boat here by not following up with accessories for the TU, its a great bike and with the GZ being discontinued in the US, I don't under stand their marketing policy.

I followed Johathans lead [on the GZ]and cut off the back rest from the Suzuki rack and mounted a Givi top case, works great, also have a set of Cortech softbags and a Cortech tank bag. Looking forward to the trip and have talked a fellow GZ rider into going along also. Of all the bikes I'v owned the 250's are the most fun , at least for me. Terry [CMS] :2tup:

Whoops! I didn't notice he was a long time memeber. Why did he post this in the intro area. LOL

Well pardner I reckon he was introducing his new friend. :2tup:

So.....
I went down to Atlanta to get my a Gz250 and I came home with this:

Sorrt for the crap photos. It was 11:30 at night in a cramped garage. I'll give her a proper photo shoot later.

Liquid cooled, 250cc single, belt drive w/ floorboards and MP3 hook up & front and rear disc brakes.

For those not familiar, it's a 2007 Qlink Legacy 250.

Interesting look with the enclosed engine. When do we get our first "First Ride" report.
