2002 Suzuki GZ 250...only 1129 miles

tennistim2@gmail.com · 05-08-2015, 08:21 PM

I purchased this m/c new in 2002 and have used it just to drive around the neighborhood.
It is in almost new condition, no defects and runs like the day I bought it.
I am just getting too old to drive it much anymore.

ORIGINAL 1129 MILES!

I thought mine couldnt be beaten, its a 2000 and had 2200 miles on the clock when I bought it at around 11 years old, it was the first motorbike I purchased and I went and checked it out myself.
Previously I had been told never to believe the mileage, mine still had plastic over the data label on the frame and tyre pressure sticker on the swingarm, albeit peeling off.
There was mild bits of corrosion but even that looked more from sitting idle in someones garage or shed where moisture probably built up in the cold. The OEM exhaust looked practically brand new and the mileage and condition seemed to tally to me.

Yours at almost 1100 miles less than mine when I got it, well I dont think you can get newer than that unless you buy it new, although someone may come along with something insanely low. Secondhand bikes (and other stuff) are great, all the better if you can get them virtually new and unused, I'm considering an upgrade now myself and hope I'll be offered a ridiculously low price for my GZ so I can use that as an excuse to keep it.
