Craig from SW Florida

Astiryu1 · 03-20-2013, 11:16 AM

My name is Craig and I bought a 2001 GZ250

It is my second bike and so far I like it. It is relatively comfortable and for short distance driving to work and school it is perfect. I have had some issues that are all tied in with not keeping a charge and step by step I am eliminating the problems. My bike is used and I paid next to nothing for it so I can't complain too much especially when the gas bill is so cheap

A few tricks I use is to keep the maintainer under the seat. I just shaved the foam spacer down to accommodate it. I try to use non ethanol as much as possible and have added a really cool feature...drink Holder for my coffee mug lol. See you out there!
