Hello all,
I am a 65 year old retired Okie that has always had a love for motorcycles. My first bike was a Harley 165 when I was 14 years old. I have since owned several bikes, including a Honda 90cc street bike a fellow gave me with the engine and transmission in a bushel basket. It took me three trys to get all the spacers right, but rode the bike for two years. I have raced bikes and ridden bikes for many years, but took a short 35 year intermission due to my career and am now the owner of a 2001 Suzuki GZ250. I have been married for 45 years and have two sons, one grandson two years old, and a very lazy cat. I reside in a very small town in Northwest Oklahoma, population 403.

Welcome Chaindrive. Another old rider here. My SO had a GZ and enjoyed riding it till she moved up to a larger bike. You will find the GZ to be a fun way to get about.

Welcome.
Do you have a gas station in town? I go through a lot of small towns in my travels and I've noticed that the consolidation of the "filling station" bidness (and I guess every other kind of business) has led to the closure of many a small town's service stations. I always wonder how much gas the locals have to waste - driving to and from the closest gas station!

Welcome to the forum and congrats on the bike. I personally think the 2001 GZ is the vintage year for GZ's.... of course, I could be just a weeeeee bit biased! :lol:
Ride safe and enjoy your bike. I have sure loved mine in the short 6 months that I have had it. AZ Kev
