For me years didn't didn't make much sense. I planned for miles. I could keep it a year and leave it in the garage the entire time.
My original plan was to ride 10,000 miles and reevaluate. I'm well past 10,000 in less than a year. I considered learning to ride and gaining experience to be my primary goals. Although I do not consider my self an expert (yet
) my riding skills now exceed the capabilities of the GZ250.
I'm not planning to get rid of it any time soon.
