Expression of interest at this stage 2004 Suzuki GN250 bobber/cafe racer. GN lovers

[SJizzle]

Potentially up for sale is my little GN250. Her name is Beatrice and whilst only being a little bike she turns a lot of heads. Work done so far is a replacement motor as the old one dropped a valve due to the previous owner being quite reckless. The replacement motor is a japanese spec one from an older GN with 26 k on the clock. The seat is a custom item and I am pretty sure there isn't many like it around in NZ. Its a skyteam ace 150 seat brought over from the UK. The bike is due to receive a new paintjob next week in metallic black with custom airbrushing done on it. Also a spare motor in good condition apart from the clutch being burnt out can be included in the sale along with various other items. Thinking about selling due to having too many toys including a SR20DET MK3 Ford Capri Project that needs funds for new shiny bits.
WOF till next year sometime and rego runs out next month but I will put six months on if sold. Work been done so far is obviously the replacement engine,new spark plug, new oil filter, cleaned out pod filter, used Castrol Semi Synthetic 10w40 oil and tidied up wiring a bit.

Note that the dent in the tank will be professionally pulled out by a dent expert. is there from previous owner dropping something on her.
Did I mention the side mounted number plate? a lot of custom work gone into this bike by myself and previous owner too to his credit

Interested parties should feel free to contact me on 02102916373.
Price is hella negotiable. I will be realistic. It's no superbike but it is something unique so make me offers $2000 plus
Cheers

Or... gutless shit heap !

Wait a minute...$2,800 for a thrashed GN250 with a fucked clutch? Is this some kind of joke? Did you misplace a decimal point?

hahaha ive ridden worse, those 50cc chinese scooters. now those are gutless. this is like a ferrari compared to those hahahaha

I guess you are sensing the vibe around the GN. Great bike for a beginner, but most people out grow them really quickly. I only have one to ride, when anything else wont go.

I have more fun on my GN125, cos it,s got knobblies on it.

Nup ... it's a GN mate.

A lot of work to do ... to make it worth $2800. New (decent) rubber might be a start ...

Good luck with the sale though.

note my price is hella negotiable, I am more than happy for someone to come knock it down to their preference. I know the rear tyre is a bit iffy hence the negotiable bit, plus the money I am spending to repair the dent in the tank as well as air brush and paint the bike justifies the price in my opinion. It will be worth over 2 grand thats for sure hint hint

yeah its got a good vibe about it. I really do like the bike but really need something a little bigger, i thought I could make it work but I was wrong lol. Its fun to ride don't get me wrong but being as heavy as I am it really isn't that comfortable for me to ride it long term. I bought it on a whim if you may and I payed close to what I am asking for it. but realistically I know that I am putting money into it that I won't get back but that is fine with me. Why not let someone else enjoy the fruits of my labour.

You can get a brand new GN125 for $2,699.

Has the rear frame been reinforced where the back look has been cut off?

if you read my last thread you would realise I have stuck a new motor in it! the clutch is not stuffed and neither has the new motor been thrashed. I bought it off an old fella for a considerable amount because I knew for a fact he took care of his shit owning multiple motorcycles so before you try and tarnish my sale get the facts right and stop presuming to know the condition of a motorbike you haven't ridden or worked on personally. the old motor had a fucked clutch and wasn't seized as I first expected the old motor to be seized but it isn't :P so score for the new buyer as the internals are mint.

or you could get a 2004 gn250 with an older model more reliable engine that has ten thousand ams less on the clock than it reads for less than that, not to mention a one of a kind looking one that grabs attention and is a bit more fun to ride than a brand new GN125
