Hi guys, im a little unsure as to where to post this, technically im needing help with my bike so i assume here is most relevant though if an admin feels the need to move this please do so at your discretion.

Anyways iv recently inherited a 1984 Suzuki GS250FW after a bit of research and applying for the V5 it was imported here in 1993 and put on age related A reg. To my knowledge these are quite a rare bike in this country but still popular down under.
Anyways im kind of hoping someone could give me an idea of the sort of price i should be asking for this sort of bike?

it runs smoothly after the usual carb problems of a bike thats been stood and is complete, could do with a rear indicator as stalk is broken but apart from that i see no reason why it wouldnt pass an MOT.

the seat needs putting back on in these pics cos i had to use a different battery as mine was charging!

oh its got all the trick bits aswell good spec for year if you ask me. Liquid cooled, Front disc, loads of electronic bits which all work eg gear indicators an stuff.

Because its in a bit of a state I'd say something like £500-£750 with a MOT.

Fully restored I'd say it would be worth more, but you might have a similar problem to G when he tried to sell his FX400 in that no one knew what the heck it was and so stayed away.

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.
