Hello everyone

[nodnaring]

New to the forum, bought a 2001 GZ250 about a year ago.

It was sitting in some guys garage for the past 7 years when I bought it, 1000 miles, great deal.

Looking forward to meeting everyone

Welcome nod. Take your picture with your bike and post. It's tradition.

Welcome to the forum - lots of good info on here. In addition to things like changing the oil/filter, emptying out the gas tank and filling it with clean gas, getting a new battery, change the tires even if they look good. They are 8 years old and probably hard and therefor slippery and the sidewalls may be cracked or checked. Get new tires and tubes for safety's sake.
