enjoying my little Geezer

edmondson3604 · 05-22-2013, 12:43 PM

Love my little bike. Have been driving back and forth to work now for two weeks, was on here a little before that with some issues with it dying but after taking it in to the shop and having my mechanic go through it, turns out the carb just needed a really good cleaning, he also flushed out tank. only charged me 50 bucks. It runs like dream now. It is my first bike so I dont really have anything else to compare it to, but really am enjoying it.

Enjoying the ride is what it is all about.

Nice saddlebags, looking for some for my bike. It's a great little bike for short around town trips. I would not like to take it cross country but that's just me.

Enjoy and Ride Safe JIM

As well as my top box, I've got saddlebags, but I find that they don't hold much, because you can't fit really big ones to the GZ. You may like to think about fitting hard ones.

Make sure you have some sort of a heat shield underneath those bags otherwise the right hand side one will get a hole burned through from the exhaust. Easy to make with a sheet of metal pop rivited to the bottom of the bag - do a search on here and you will find some suggestions.

yeah, I wouldn't want to go on a long trip either. I have only taken it on the interstate a couple of times. I only weigh about 145, and the bike is so light the wind kicks your butt a little. Back and forth to work and around town its great though. Its my first bike, bought in march, used it for the safety class. haven't been riding for very long but am lovin every minute of it.
