Re: New Gz250 Rider that building it into a Bobber

Full disclosure: I'm sort of a stock guy myself (but I do like to look at other people's creations.)

I should wait to see how it looks with your new tank and frame, but I'll blurt it out - don't like the orange grips. They interrupt the otherwise clean look of the flat black and give it kind of a cheap Halloween look. Unless that's what you were going for...

Hi there, Not really much you can do to get more horses out of a geezer. It is what it is. :2tup:

Re: New Gz250 Rider that building it into a Bobber

I think it looks pretty cool so far. I gotta' go with someone else who mentioned the orange grips - not my cup of tea, but hey, if you like 'em, that's all that matters.

One more thing that came to mind when I looked at it: are you planning on wearing some kind of "nut protection"? Cuz that seat looks like one hell of a nuttcracker to me!
