Jesus people...it's a quote from The Big Lebowski.

I think the term "Jesus people" has also fallen out of favor...

:horse:

Sorry for the diversion MH. Think you can get a whole (used, but working) GZ for that price.

Yeah, I just sold one for $1700. You may have to travel a bit.

he sold his gz for 1,700.

Yeah...to back up what AlanMcmorcananana said about getting a newer, used, GZ in good shape for the same price as a new "Asian-American" (Chinaman) knock off.

Nothing wrong with Chinese bikes, except for the cheap plastic and that they are a little bit less powerful than their "Island-Asian-People" (Jap) counterparts. However, given that the Gz's market value is only somewhere in the $2000 range for a pretty new one, the trade-off isn't going to be worth it.
