I didn't think so, but I could be wrong.
I scraped as much on my GPX as I did having a go on Pabs' ZZR (sorry Pabs ;) )
The ZZR does have more fairing, but it does also have a (slightly) more adjustable rear shock I believe. Most else is pretty much the same.
Either will do the job for you Pinky.

Welcome Pinkbike :)

Welcome Susan

My wife (Zombie on here) has a ZZR250 which is a very capable bike. Nice and forgiving for a learner, easy to control at low speed yet capable of attaining reasonable pace should you so desire.

I've pinched it for the commute to work, and it coped perfectly well.

Hi PinkBike, welcome to the Club mate. You ain't the first to think Neka is a girlie, and you won't be the last !! :wink:

ZZR two fiddy is a perfect bike for you.

Hrmm... should probably get my licence first. :oops:

So, apart from the riders I should stay AWAY FROM in Adelaide :P are there any I might actually want to know? :P

And Im not sending you any pictures Neka. But I will post one of me on my new bike when I get it :P You'll just have to wait until then! :twisted:

Hiya and welcome Pinky! hello.gif

Thats the bike I wanted..... but was talked out of it due to the colour.... so I ended up with a black one and added a few personal touches to it...

Hiya PinkBike...

Welcome!

ZZR250 is a great first bike in my opinion...

I had one as my first bike and loved it! I nearly cried when it came time to sell it...

Go the GPX mate, better scoot all round. cheaper, lighter & less plastic to break.

I think my GPX is a great bike, but the ZZR looks sexier. :D

Mon Jan 08, 2007 1:10 pm

Mmm... I like the look of more plastic, although there's more for me to scratch if I drop it :?

Thanks for your input :D The more the better!
