    GN250 or similar

    Hi KBers.

    Yes, I know, why on earth would anyone WANT to buy a GN250? I've asked my wife that many times but she just seems to like them. That said I'm a bit ugly and easy to ride so maybe that's what she's into. Looking to ditch her nifty 50 for something with fractionally more power.

    Anyways looking to buy a GN250, happy to travel for the right bike and fix one up if necessary. Price will depend on the condition of your bike of course, so send me a PM if you got one kicking about that you want gone.

    It was my first bike and I wanted one over anything else...brand new @ $2995. In saying that, it wasn't long until I wanted a 600cc bike which I bought while still on my restricted.

    Yeah it's a fucking shame you can't get them new any more, only the poos powered 125, which I'm pretty sure her Piaggio could beat in a drag race

    My Wife had a Suzuki dealership in the 1980's and they sold the GN but they were mainly farm bike suppliers. Good bikes to learn on, no question.

    Easy to ride, has ABS, traction control, great suspension, grippy tyres and strong brakes. Safer to ride than a GN. Oh yes, has fractionally more power

    No dollar auction this time?
    What are you getting next?
    Why would you sell it with only 43k on the clock?

    s40 would be a better ride if that is the style she likes.
    I have evolved as a KB member.Now nothing I say should be taken seriously.
