I don't know why...but that made me crack up laughing.

But but but, none of those things are two strokes!

You cannot seriously consider exchanging a classic screaming raving loonie hoon machine for a cruiser!

I don't know of ANY two stroke cruisers!

But... I'm not FUSSED on 2 strokes... haven't been in the way of the Biker long enough to have established a particular fancy...

Well, other than to have figured I don't like feeding the spongey bitch bike from hell!

you are surely taking the piss?

the RZ is alot more bike than the gn
keep the RZ!!

Well of COURSE it's a bitch bike from hell. It's a two stroke. I mean, granted, they are just a teeny bit tempramental, and maybe, perhaps, cost just a little tiny bit more to keep going, and just very occasionally may have a slight whoopsie.

But its a TWO STROKE. How can anyone not be "fussed" about a two stroke. Haven't you been inhaling the smoke? And what about the ringa-ding-dinga?

With all two strokes you must show it who is master. Not let it get ideas. Of course, sometimes you will lose, noone can ever expect always to control a two smoker. Take it out to somewhere like SH22 or Twilight Road and wring the nuts off it. Cane it through those corners without mercy, hammer it into the ground. Then it'll run like a charm. For a while, anyway.

Mark my words, once a biker's been two stroked, nothing else can ever live up to that standard.

EDIT: Remember to take a good tool kit. And a few spare spark plugs.

Okay okay, so maybe the GN lust thing was a bit over the top...

But I feel the RZ and I are not meant to be long term lovers...

I have a wife who has a tighter grip on the purse strings than a 14 year old boy in a lingerie store has on his tackle. (Admittedly, it's cos I am shite with money)

So I need something with looks, and affordability. Possibly even a project bike that requires minimal love. The RZ needs a re-paint, the frame needs to be taken back, basically it's going to be a long time before she is beautiful again, and every 6 months will be a WOF bodge session.

Dammit, she deserves better than me. She deserves a sugar daddy, I am merely saccharine!

All the more reason to escape her evil siren song now before I hit the rocks and she devours my very essence!

See?? It begins! She's got you acting as her agent - back to the pit foul shade!

There is another model... it pains me to say this, it's... it's... it's the GN250... she's gorgeous.

I'll come out and say it.

I WANT ONE!

But Mrs Fort Bloody Knox says I can't have one...

...how can I satisfy my lust, when the only two wheeled mistress I have no longer fires me as much as I fire her?

For fucks sake mate if your having fantasies about GN250's, its not a new bike you need, its a new fantasy.....get out more or at least lust over something that warrants your attention.

I had a prior fantasy, but after the trespass notice, the protection order and the threats of lawsuits, I had to give it up...

**andrea** · 14th November 2006, 21:25

NO I take that back, thats my fantasy, you can keep dreaming bout your gn250cc, you should get one if you want one, a gn250 that is

**xwhatsit** · 14th November 2006, 21:29

OK, I'll tell you what mate; I've got a great deal for you. Lets swap bikes. Mine is shiny, doesn't need repainting (OK, there's a few minor scratches). It's a minor project bike, as you asked for -- but doesn't require much cash (I've just bought a new cylinder head for it, so that's the major expense). When it's running with the new cylinder head, it's relatively powerful for a single-cylinder 4-stroke 250 (a lot more than a GN250!). No worries about WOF.

I'll take the RZ250 off your hands for you. I know they're a horrible bike, ugly and this 2-stroke bullshit, but I'd be willing to do that for the good of the KB community.

Best of all I'm not asking for any money -- just a straight swap! Easy as. No no, no need for thanks!
