I've decided to move to something a bit more touring orientated :yes: so I shall let the wee beasty go. (or pointlessly waste money on my other projects, like a muppet)
As per listing details, '91 GJ74A Bandit, very nice little bike to ride and would be learner friendly as it's very smooth and manageable.
Runs like a dream, cold starts like a boss. Has an impressive amount of pep for a 250
Honest and fairly tidy wee thing, I've chucked some HH sintered pads in the front brakes for a bit of extra bite. Well maintained, have gone over the carbs, balanced them etc. Replaced the exhaust gaskets with proper copper ones when I pulled the system off to polish it
Good sport demons all round, rear is near new.
Has a choice of handle bars, both are shown in the piccies attached, I'll keep one set.
I think this is a pretty fair price for one of the better examples of a grouse learner legal bike
Has recent WoF and rego can be negotiated.

Yeah, does make some uncertainty whether or not it's the 45hp model, so I'll just go with it being 40. :laugh:
I can't find any official Suzuki info on them anyway, closest I can find is the chinglish thing I already have and Suzukicycles info.
I'm a trainspotter with Kawasakis and Hondas of the era, but Suzukis that don't start with RGV or GSX-R don't really spark my interest so much.
Still the best bike in the world etc and somebody will love it muchly. I have a club car and a Kawasaki to build now, so it must be gone

What a dick. Had no interest in anything other than ruining your sale. :weird: Hope you get good dollars for it, looks like a tidy little learner for some speedy fella.

The beasty is still up for grabs, I haven't been using it at all sadly.
Will re-list it on Tardme eventually.
Will happily take around the 2.6k mark for it.

You'll wanna make sure there are no double amputee Olympians in the house before summoning a bumpity bump in the night. Especially with mention of a pretty lady.
Stupid phone / Tapatalk, apologies in advance.

http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=729751137 moar bumps and stuff.
It's a lovely bike for the money, just did a minor spot of touring on it. Handles 120km/h winds great given it is a light wee thing and has no issues passing even in to the wind. Now up to 59,500km :cool: Awesome fun in the tight stuff.
