not too good
kinda hit a dead end at the moment
however it is running and rideable just been too hot and other things going on
was contemplating selling it as at the moment their is now 5 bikes in the yard 3 are being used this gpx is being slowly put together and i have managed to pick up a gpz600r which is undergoing a motor rebuild and hopefully a respray then that will be my daily ride as im haveing a few problems with the gpx its actually hurting after a reasonable length ride

just uncomfortable as im over 6ft
main concern was i was popping/cracking my hip everytime i got off the bike
however the gpz i am not having any issues with at all so all is good
have now picked up a front fairing for the bike and more or less all i have to do is bolt it together and could sell it
however their is still a hole in the top of the fuel tank where the fairing bolt was pushed into it so leaks when full
so more then likely itll be all fixed up and resprayed and goto my brother then will sell the z250 which is now black pictured above somewhere
for hopefully around a grand
have rebuilt the motor and trans in the 600 and registered it
just due to how many hours im working havnt had the chance to respray it yet...
so all good
