Black ones are faster, but you meet more girls on blue ones. :lol:

Re: 2006 Suzuki GZ250

I'm really starting to wonder about all these GZ250s blowing up.
Are they all cases of using Full-Throttle for too long a period?

Yes,most have have been run wide open & abused.If used properly,with maintenance,your bike will last a long time.When I sold mine,it had 45000 kms on it,and it still ran excellent

Re: 2006 Suzuki GZ250

I removed my Suzuki OEM Windshield today to try out a couple of Fairings.
Big difference of being with it and without it. While it is not as large as some
of the Aftermarket ones, it looks a lot better than most of them and it fits good.
The one complaint I have is the low quality of the Nuts & Bolts that are used in it.
The previous owner had obviously kept my GZ250 outside and they got a lot of rust on
them. I would recommend replacing them for better hardware or keeping them very well
lubricated for protection from the elements. I probably need to get myself a good cover too.

Re: 2006 Suzuki GZ250

The Mounting hardware for the Fairing I chose doesn't
work on the GZ and it's non-standard type headlight
and turn signals. After three trips to Home Depot I
think I have what I need to rig up my own design.
Should have it installed by this weekend and I
will take some pictures as soon as it's done.
