Thanks for looking . . . but this bike was sold less than 30 minutes after I posted it!!!

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++++++++

I am selling an '01 Red Suzuki GZ 250 Cruiser Motorcycle with only 2,300 miles!

I bought this motorcycle when it was new to learn how to ride. Now, after moving it from place to place on the back of a truck, I realize that it’s finally time to sell it!


I am asking only $800!!!

This is an excellent price, you will not be able to find anything close to this, for this price!


Call me to arrange a time to pick it up!

(919) 926-9876.

Please try to call between 8am and 10pm EST.

Leave a message if I miss your call - I'll get right back to you.


I do not own a truck - so I can not deliver this bike to you. You need to be able to come and pick it up from me, in downtown Raleigh, NC.


I am the original owner.

This bike has only 2,300 miles!

It has never been laid down, not even once. The paint looks great!

I have obviously stored it more than ridden it.

All it needs is a bath and a new battery with a minor tune-up. It has been sitting for awhile.

Once this bike is cleaned up, it will look like and ride like new!

You can also have the all-weather cover that I have been using to protect the bike.


If you'd like to see more pictures, please check out the page that I have just put together (with over 40 photos of the bike):

A seven + year old motorcycle will also need new tires and tubes, as you should never ride on tires any older than 4 years!

It should have all the brake fluid lines purged and refilled as well.

Why are you selling so cheap?

:whistle:

I am selling so cheap because: "A seven + year old motorcycle will also need new tires and tubes, as you should never ride on tires any older than 4 years!"

and . . . my wife and I are moving from Raleigh to Baltimore in a week and a half. I will not have a place to store/park the bike at the building we are moving to.

When I first bought the bike I used it as a local commuter and loved it for a year or so . . . I haven't really had much time to devote to riding it lately.

$800 is cheap . . . though I think that it's fair (for both parties). Whoever buys this bike will want to put a few hundred into maintenance to make sure that everything is top notch before taking it out on the road.

If I had a few weeks (and it was the beginning of the summer) I might have listed it for as high as $1,400 . . . who knows?!
