    Gn to GSXR

    Howdy ive been riding almost two years now most of that on a GN250. Got rather bored but have been too lazy to get my restricted so i bought a 1990 gsxr 250. Which is a little bit awesome when it wants to start XD. Loving riding, always have. I comute everyday on my bike and go out on weekends for rides for fun. Hate having to drive cars now and laugh at boy racers as they try race a bike.

    hey mate. what'd you get the bike for? just out of curiosity... i bet you love it way more than the GN. i guess if in doubt just take the gsxr into your local mechanics and see what they say?

    Get your full ya lazy bugger. Then you can buy whatever you like.

    Personally I fail to understand why they allow drivers and riders to continue for years and years on a learners - you should have to pass your full within a max of 24 months or start again.

    congrats on the new ride. Take it to your LBS to get that starting issue sorted you wouldn't want it to not start if you were in the middle of nowhere.

    hmm, well if i could be more help i would. perhaps post your issue in one of the bike mechanic areas? as maybe the people in the know don't check new member speak for mechanical issue stuff. might be wrong though.
