That's similar to what you're doing isn't it? You haven't even got off your Ls yet and you're trying to upgrade. I admit that the GPX is pretty crap in a straight line, but it can definitely be a challenge in the twisties.

Saki, the ZX250R is the CBR250RR's competition. People will pay a couple of grand more for those than a GPX250.

Not quite. He got a licence, rode (nothing over 500cc) for a little while and hasn't been on a bike from then til now. In those same 30 years I've owned several bikes, ridden others belonging to friends and employers, and the longest I've been off is 5 years. I just never owned a registered one or was able to borrow one in order to get a licence. It was something I just kept thinking I could do later.

I like the GPX. Its a great little bike - but I'm over 6 feet tall. Its bad enough that it feels small, but people constantly pointing it out and making jokes about postie bikes is only funny for the first week. :roll:

That is the last straw! :evil: The head mechanic just took my bike for a ride 'to compare' as he hasn't been on it since he got the 600. He came in smiling and said, "It's running well - but it wouldn't stop at letterboxes." Hardy har. :roll: Everybody's a comedian.
