Aye Michael,

Yes! BUT, NO!  :P

It looks more like a "dune buggy", with the oversize tyres that have no tread on the tyre sidewalls, "flat track"! NO.  :(

I hate to think how close that front tyre gets to the frame downtube on full compression. As for the exhaust, NAH!  :(  Yet again form has overtaken function, a single 'Y' piece pipe at the head and a pipe down the righthand side of the frame down tube, with an underslung pipe beneath the motor and a CCM reverse cone megga on the end would suit better.

Here is the link, if you insist! Ron-Wood-Suzuki-GN250

Yours, the flat track curmugeon!  ;)

CCM reverse cone I hear you say, well I certainly agree with you on that 😉👍. Still think Ian (Spartacus) should get that old angle grinder outta the shed and whittling away😉
Ps.. thanks for posting the link up Bill 👍.. cheers, Michael

Blimey Michael if I could produce something as pretty as that believe me I would be tempted to fire up the angle grinder. I would have a slightly less oversize front tyre though. I do admire people who can cut a bike about and make it look prettier than when they started, I usually stand back and think 'bugger'.

Love the colour too.

Looks nice, but yes, the first time he hits any surface undulations in the road that front tyres going to hit the exhaust...

Hey Rufus

Ahh Colin. Definitely on the list of bikes I should never have sold. I have to say now I have had my current GN250 the Mighty Midget a while I think the model could go to the top of my all-time favourite bike tree.
