In the autumn of 2011 i bought a GZ250 Marauder from 2003, it's my first bike.
In the same years in may i got my driving license :biggrin:
And now that the spring is geting closer and closer i am planing to prepare the bike for the new season,
i have already bought 2 liters of Motul 7100 10W40 oil for it and i want to install an KN136 airfilter, maybe an
iridium spark plug, also i need to change the front tire, i saw some Michelin tires for the bike with aproximately
90$-the front tire, i think its's the cheapest on the market, also i need to buy a disk brake cleaner, tow sprays for the
chain for cleaning it and lubing it. A dot4 liquid break change is also needed i guess and there are some other minor
problems with it for example i kind of need to change the direction bearings from the fork because the bike steers a little
hard, the front fender is cracked a little and i need to fix it/glue it and the tank has a little dent right near the stopper
which i think it can be fixed easyly somehow.
The bike has 35000km and its from 2003, its the black model, well what else can i say, im satisfied with it, especialy due to
the low consumption, and what i dont like about it is the fact that si full of plastics:)) i would have prefered some metal/allow fenders and lids
here it is:

Hi! That's a great looking bike! Welcome to the forum. It sounds like you are doing a great job taking care of the bike. I wish I could find the time to do all that stuff. :)

Welcome aboard Rider!

I guess a good thing about winter is you can do the maintenance without losing riding time. Other than that, who needs winter? :)

I'll take a guess and say you must have a warm indoor work area. :cry:

Make sure you allow for ventilation to remove any build up of moisture.
