Hey guys had a look at one of these at strada motorcycles today are they any good. Will they take me long distances no probs? They would give it to me 4 $2000.00 with trade. Opinions thanks

Uh ... why would you bother? Don't be fooled by the name. It has a smaller engine than the GN and is probably heavier. It's also a single - like the GN. If it's an upgrade you're looking for, this is not it.

Right got the message thanks

[Drum]

I've never seen these ones before. Reminds me of the GPZ.
Looks like they sell in the US for around NZ$3,900 delivered.

I think the fellas are right. You're better off with the GN.

Too right... in fact the GN's are actually slightly gruntier so it would be a downgrade, if anything!

The Zongshen GS250 features a durable light-weight design,
wide-range single headlight, front & rear disk brakes, dual rear-view mirrors, ABS rear braking system and a engine protective cover.


ABS rear braking system ? makes you wonder why they didn't do ABS on the front too

[MidnightMike]

I wouldnt touch one, they're selling those for 5k, better to buy a second hand 250, a twin or fo cylinder.

[Steve 555]

ok wont touch one wow something people dislike more than a gn thats a first.

[kensuem]

Does this mean that GN,s are no longer the bike you run down when you,ve had a bad day?

[JimO]

it has good fashion charm and baked varnish finish

[Steam]

It's got a flux capacitor! Buy it!

Also:

Our joint-venture motor has 5 great characteristics :

1. super quiet sound

2. it is powerful. easy to run quickly;

3. installed the gas economizer;

4. it applys the plasma baking varnish and integrates the fashion design;

5. the performance-to-price ratio is high.
