Hey all. I'm Tim. Just bought a 2002 GZ250 yesterday and rode it home about 50 miles through t-storms and then hot sun. Love Central Florida like that. I've had bikes in the past but not for a few years. I got married, had kids... I drive 29 miles to work and needed something to get me there cheap so I ended up with the GZ yesterday. It runs great. I love it and can't wait to get more riding in.

Have fun and check your tires. You might be due for new ones.

Hi Tim and welcome. Great gas mileage from the GZ, and a nice ride as well. As was posted before me, check your tires for cracking and wear. Also remember to check the condition of the oil through the site gauge. If it looks kinda ugly, change it. Suzuzki recommends every 3,000 miles for oil change, and every 6,000 for oil filter change. For the filter change remember to get the two "O" rings for the filter area (1 smaller one and 1 larger one).I have changed my filter once so far. We love our GZ a lot!!! Enjoy your ride and ride safe. GZBrian

Yes, but for how little an oil filter costs, it's MUCH better to change it every 3000 miles while you're changing the oil.

Remember, Suzuki has a vested interest in selling you a new engine, sometime down the line. :whistle:

This goes along the lines of Suzuki not fitting a fuel filter, but it's still a very good idea to fit one. :2tup:
