Well my new, as in 2.9 miles never titled new, 2009 GZ250 was dropped of by my dealership today!!!! I thought I would share some pictures although she nothing more than stock. I think she's beautiful!!!! Now... getting my permit tomorrow and then taking my riders safety course next week hopefully and then we dance! Enjoy :rawk:

[New GZ250]

Great looking bike, looks just like my 2009.
Contgrats, hope you get your permit tomorrow, I put almost 10K in just over a year on back roads. I road the hell out of it with not one problem! Great bike to learn on, now I have two bikes. The GZ and a Triumph. (I moved up in size about two weeks ago)
Enjoy!

Always looking to meet new riders in the vicinity.

DON'T FORGET - No more than ½ throttle for the first 500 miles, then no more than ¾ throttle for the next 500. Proper running in = longer engine life. :2tup:

Congratulations on the new bike. Ride safely and break her in like Alantf recommends. Welcome to the forum too.

Sugar Grove, far west Suburbs just outside Aurora actually right on the approach end to Rwy 27 at Aurora Airport in S.G.( Sorry I'm also a pilot, kitplane builder, and an Air Traffic Controller). It sounds like there is plenty of riders in the Chicagoland area we should definitely start a gathering or ride of some sort.

Definitely going to follow break in procedures to the T again my piloting experience and build experiences have taught me the importances of staying within the manufacturers recommended limitations.

Anyway off to get my Permit here in a couple of hours and then scheduling my Riders safety and Licensing course either through Ride-Chicago or MSF in Chicago for next week. At some point I expect to stop smiling but I sure am enjoying it right now!

Black! Black is good. I like black...can't ya tell? Don't use your new bike in the BRC. Use theirs. If you drop it and it's theirs you save having dinged your own bike.

That's the plan! Got my permit today so BRC will be next week. I was also going to use their helmets. Hey on a side note should I invest in a trickle down charger? My battery was already dead this afternoon, I checked and the on thing left on was the key in the ignition.
