Description: Kawasaki GPX250 road bike
Condition: Fair
Price: $750


This is a 1988 kawasaki GPX250 motorbike which I've had for about 5 years and barely used. It is black with red pinstripes with a twin cam, twin carb, twin cylinder engine. They have proven to be a very popular Japanese bike for many years. It has been unregistered for more than a year now and needs a blue slip if rego'd in NSW. Passed a blue slip 2 years ago for rego with the only problem being the right muffler has a few holes in it. Muffler bandage got it rego'd but it needs to be done again or ideally replaced. It would cost about $300 for 12 months rego in NSW. The previous owner rode and maintained it himself for around 10 years.

There is a small dent and missing red pinstripes on fuel tank. The fork seals also need replacing which is not hard I just didn't get around to it. I bought some and will include them if I can find them! The fairings are all there and could be made to look their best again. Tyres are also very good 90% tread and I put a new battery in it 2 years ago although it's flat and I need to charge it. I also rebuilt the carbs and the fuel tank was repaired professionally to fix a leak. The seat was recovered some years ago and still looks fantastic. It could use a new clutch but it still rides fine so I never bothered. Has always been stored in my garage while I've had it.

**MUST BE PICKED UP BY TUESDAY 15/9**

Also included in the price is a full photocopied service manual, a second hand medium helmet and near new meduim size gloves.

Cheap economical transport, learner legal and just in time for the warmer weather!!

post some pics. Why pick up by 15/9/09? That seems like a bargaining tool to me, or is it you need to get it out and wanna negotiate a deal of sharing it? . i need another bike to keep my 3rd one company. Bikes are actually my bigger passion to VWs
BTW can tell u now yr batterys stuffed. Bike batterys dont last 2 years without use

Hi kombivw!
No bargaining tools here...I'm picking up and moving to Adelaide that day!!
The battery may well be stuffed, but it is less than $50 for a new one so no biggy as you would know.
It's been a good bike and it's going way under market value.

Got it started by jumpstarting it off the car. As kombivw predicted, the battery is shagged.

Here are a few pics...
