New guy from New Zealand!

[kiwi]

G'day all! Thought I'll introduce myself and my trusty GZ here.

My name's Jesse (but everybody just calls me Jez) and I'm from Christchurch, New Zealand. Currently I'm doing a Diploma in Mechanical Engineering. I spent a year studying welding and fabrication, and spent 6 months in the trade. Before that I was working in the family workshop changing oils on trucks and other heavy equipment (so you could say I'm quite hands on ). I brought my GZ250 in Novemeber, 2013. She's a 03 model, I got her with a little over 7,000 miles on her. Just clocked over 21,000 as of 12/02/2015. Her name is Suzi, and can't ever imagine us parting.. I get a little upset when people tell me to sell her and upgrade.

During the time I've had her she's never missed a beat. I change the oil and filter every 3 - 4 thousand miles and she just keeps humming along. The only breakdown I've had was the clutch cable (which set me back $30.00 and 5 minutes). I've got quite a bit planned for the future of her (including but not limited to Suzishee's 350cc Banshee swap).

I hope to be able to learn from, and share my knowledge with other members here.

Cheers,
Kiwi.
