As a rule, imports are harder to insure and find parts for.

But times are a changin :)

All GPX and ZZR 250 riders - be aware there are already blinkers in your bike (either side of tailight :lol: ) and they are just painted over.
Undo the screws, get into it with some thinners and put bulbs in.
Not ADR but as they are not far enough apart but it does look pretty smart.
Just because you CAN ride, doesn't mean you SHOULD

There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. Some kind of high powered mutant never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.

Really? Did they ask you if it was an import?
