Not hardly, I just went out and started tearing it down, it has the air filter I put in it when i sold it TWO YEARS AGO. I took the spark plug out, the electrode was so worn, that the gap was .065 inches!!!

So they wouldn't have known if there was a problem anyways. But I bought it cheap enough that as long as it holds up long enough for my wife to learn how to ride or decide she doesn't want to ride at all, I will have gotten my moneys worth.


That being said, I think after some TLC, it will still be in pretty good shape, one thing about the GZ, it might not go 100 or be the flashiest bike on the planet, but it is strong as an ox, you obviously can't kill one even if you try (because it sure appears like they tried, and failed).
