Can I assume gn250 parts do not fit my 2000 gz250?

I'm talking cylinder, piston, rings and valves.

My compression is getting low and I want an alternative to throwing the bike in the gutter.

It's a different head design, if I'm not mistaken.
You can do a little more research, but I'm pretty sure a few people have had similar thoughts to you in the past only to be disappointed.

My thought is cylinder, piston and rings. Found a gn250 set in china for 100 bux.

So... Time to gamble. Do I risk the money or not 0_o

Dude if it's just $100, why not? You'll at least get some parts that are useful and you'll forever enhance the knowledge database of usable parts.

Kk next paycheck buys this overhaul kit for gn250

[jonathan180iq]

Absolute worst case scenario, you'll have parts to resell and will have only spent $100.
Good luck.

Engines look the same, and in Wikipedia FWIW it says that the GN250 'features the same basic powertrain as the GZ250'. Hope it works.

Just did a bit of searching. The GN makes 22 ponys, a bit more than the GZ. Too bad they were discontinued a while back. Looks to be a little lower in the saddle too. Could be a great alternative for short folks if they can find a good used one.

absolutely YES....go for it....GZ250 , GN250 and GS250X (mine) practically same in all engines component....

I know this is kinda old, but would a gn250 big bore kit fit a gz250 if its the same basic engine?

[alexdf]

Does it fit on our GZ engines? I´m thinking about set a big bore kit (for a GN) on my gz 250.
