    Greetings from Ireland

    Hi guys and gals, just about to buy myself a yamaha fzx250 zeal. Have been riding a scooter for the last 2 years and its time to move up. Because the zeal is such a rare bike over here in Ireland(probably about 30 in the country max), I decided to sign up here. It's a 91 zeal, resprayed in blue, showa rear shocks from a cb1300 and an RS125 front mudguard. It has some problems though, needs a new fuel tap and the tank is rusty on the inside. Expect loads of questions from me!

    The Zeal sounds good. Thoses shocks maybe a bit stiff.

    Do you have a good Irish jokes for us?

    All my Irish mates tell the best ones. Most non Irish people consider them to be politically insensitive, but as my Irish friends tend to be far better educated and more clever than most, we all find them very funny.

    No offence intended and all that.............

    Nice to meet you FZXIRL.

    I'm not familiar with the FZX250 Zeal. Guess I've got some Googling to do. I would be keen to see any pictures of it that you may have :-)
    My bike doesn't leak oil; it marks its territory.

    Welcome to the nuthouse!
    We aren't all nuts here as long as we keep taking them little round pills.

    Don't know much about the Zeal but someone out there will have one. do a search on this site there maybe some info/threads on zeal b4.
    Enjoy your new toy. & if you ever get the chance to come over here to ride there will be plenty of people around here to meet with.

    Glad to have some more "international" members.

    We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,
    Running over the same old ground.
    What have you found? The same old fears.
    Wish you were here. QWQ

    Woohoo!

    Zeals are awesome.



    Of course, I don't really know jack shit about them mechanically. I just ride bikes, then burst into tears when they break.

    Like these bahahahaaa:

    Why do pigeons fly upside down over the Northside?
    There's nothing worth shitting on!!

    What have Batman and a northsider in common?
    They both can't go into town without Robin.

    Northsider was walkin along and fell down a manhole (forget what they're called over there). Garda happens by, looks down and asks if he's ok. "Did you break anything?" Northsider replies "Nah, there's fook all down here ta break!".

    How do you know when a northsider has an orgasm?
    She drops her chips!
