    GSXR250: Awesome learner bike

    Thought I should offer my bike up on here before Trade me as its not getting enough use of late and am currently looking for a station wagon or SUV so I could be looking at swaps aswell. For 2600 I will throw in the gear. So thats a Helmet, Boots (with some scrapes size 11) a codura Jacket and pants (that have a 360 zip) and gloves which makes this a perfect starter package iam 6'1" and 105 kgs but room in the gear for a bit bigger or smaller...

    It’s a 1990 GSXR250 which is an inline 4 cylinder engine these engines put out a lot more power than the newer ones which they put restrictions on in about 91 in Japan. It sits on 120 comfortably in 6th I would recommend 5th or fourth gear for 100kmph and you can definatly loose your lisence if you want. The engine redlines @ 17,000rpm and is designed to be run at the high revs.

    Has new Warrent and 3 months rego Just put on (end of octoberish) I have had the bike for just over 1 year and have had the following done...
    New clutch plates
    New Front tire
    New Spark plugs
    New Hand grips
    New fork Seals & fork oil
    New Choke Cable
    New Battery
    New Horn
    New Front Brake Switch
    Replaced Brake fluid
    Replaced coils
    Replaced intake manifolds
    Replaced Petrol Tank (old one has dent in, I still have this)
    Replaced Stator
    Carbs balanced & valve clearances done

    The bike has almost done 70,000k’s and is running fine she does about 5ltrs per 100ks so very economical.

    Have a couple of spare parts to go with it... Tank + CDI and some inlet rubbers

    Let me know if your interested.
    Bike is in Taupo.

Wow was I supprised Ive only ever ridden my bike so was quite supprised with the lack of power on the GN I weigh a little over 100kgs at the moment and on my bike lets just say 150+ is Possible and reasonably quick to get there....
