Well here she is.. both me missus and her GPZ. A cracking little bike, I really like riding it (the bike!!!)
February 22, 2008 at 10:12 pm #54855DiggerParticipantGot your missus a very clean bike there mate,does she clean both the bikes now.
February 23, 2008 at 10:57 am #54856imperialdataKeymasterNice one
February 23, 2008 at 7:14 pm #54857GSF K1ParticipantDigger.. who are you kidding????? I end up cleaning both bikes AND both cars!!!!! I also do all of the maintenance and end up buying all the bits.
She bakes cakes and irons.
Hmm.. think I’m missing something here.
Anyhow, its got a fair few little marks, but then it is 12 years old with 26000 miles on the clock, but mechanically its sound. I’m waiting for a replacement handlebar cos she bent it the other week when she dropped it and buggered the throttle bar, scratched the engine bar (which is why we got em), and some light scratches on the exhaust.. but nothing serious.
She’ll learn alot with it.

February 29, 2008 at 9:40 pm #54859GordyParticipantI had a thrash on one of those GPZs some time back. The suspension was a tad soft but the engine was willing and it was good fun.
I hope she enjoys it.

LOL, she got custody then! Seriously, I am sorry to hear that you have gone your seperate ways. There are planty of more fish in the sea, but I am not sure how many have a GPz500…
