Wicked photos of the military GN250, soon to be for sale

[Steam]

I took these photos of my bike tonight, in preparation for selling it.
I thought they were so interesting I'd share them right now.
I'll be listing it for sale in a few weeks so if any of you new people are interested in getting a reliable old GN250, blinged out military styles, keep your eyes open here and on Trademe.
See, GN's CAN be cool!

[Storm]

Nice effort that man

[jonbuoy]

[McDuck]

How much would you sell it for?

[The Lone Rider]

Thats awesome. I love it.

[Steam]

How much would you sell it for?

Hmm... I'm thinking $1600, I'll put it on Trademe and let the market decide. But I'll be listing it on here too when I sell, probably in about 3 weeks.
I'm quite looking forward to selling it, because it will give me an excuse to do a long-distance weekend ride to deliver it. I'm hoping someone in Northland will buy it so I can ride up there, never been there before.

I recently picked up my SR250 from Auckland & rode it back to New Plymouth in one go, including stops for fuel, food & wee's took 6 1/4 hours.

Wellington to Auckland??? :oi-grr: :crazy:

As usual, your ride and effort to make it so makes my heart go pitter-pat :love: 'Tis a shame you are getting rid of your pride and joy for the time we've heard of it's inception, incubation and creation! :yes:

Sooooo ... what's next? A modified two wheel version of "Back to the Future"? And don't worry about what others say about long rides, they are the very quintessential part of the biker lifestyle .. riding those long lanes on two wheels of freedom sets the soul free, your passion on fire, to feel alive and in the moment. Life just doesn't get better than those moments which you can capture and hold onto (that includes, birth, deaths, triumphs, defeats and other features of "life")

Excelsior Carpe Diem! :woohoo: :sunny: :Punk:

WHAT???? You mean the love affair has ended??? How did this happen? What did she do wrong? Or is it you, not her? :rofl:

Nice job you've done to the ginny, but at the end of the day, it is still a ginny! I'm so OVER mine it's not funny - but no funds to upgrade, even after I get my full *sigh*

[MickDastardly]

How bout a long distance delivery to Upper Hutt? :yes:

[apteryx_haasti]

Hey Steam,

Cool photos. Good job on the bike as well.

Cheers.

You got it, just not enough power to blend in properly with motorway traffic. I want to be able to sit at 110 all day and not be passed on hills so much. I'm a BIG tall fella and I catch a LOT of wind.
It was great but I am ready.
I'll still have a soft spot for the Ginny though, in my opinion it's the perfect machine for learning. It lets you develop the skills and by the time you get your full you're eager for more. It has enough power to thrill a noob like me, but not enough to kill me quick.
Yeah, I'll miss it.

If all beginners had such an attitude there would be far more bikers...

Good luck with the sale, nice work on the GN, hoipefully it will go to someone who will appreciate the work that went into it.:rockon:

[Grub]

Those time exposed, especially th red one are professional class. That's good stuff, I want to see more

[Guitana]

Hey Steam what about a GSXR1100 half track now that woud be something!!
Plenty of power and the cars will be more wary of trying to run you off the road especially with a Spandau mounted on the back!!!

[Dodger]

Nice looking bike that :)
Hope it finds a nice home.
