Both of those forums are quite good with friendly folks who have a lot of experience and knowledge.

Oh, hey, thank you so much for those links! I had no idea that the VX shared any lineage with any current bikes so that helps a lot.

Picked up the bike today, and it was pouring rain and dark, so, not the best circumstances to try out a new bike. So far, I've noticed that the GZ250 is much much lighter, and easier to handle, and more fun and easier and more nimble in town.

The VX has power, though, and I'm not really used to that. I was going about 60, and just to see what would happen, I twisted the throttle. The bike pulled forward very strong and accellerated well. With the GZ, I'm used to 60 being about as fast as I'm going to get.

Have to get used to it, I guess. I just like the GZ so much better, but I got this other one for freeway commuting, so once I get my windshield, I'll see how that goes.
