Hi all,

I have a Suzuki GN250 I would like to swap for something more interesting.

Good bits:

- Rebuilt top end of engine (previous owner ran it with low oil, now runs fine)
- Recent new Varta battery
- Most of a tank of petrol Very Happy
- New rear shock absorbers
- Two good tyres
- Freshly changed fork seals
- About 9 month's MOT left, and some tax
- Custom rear-end with mini indicators
- Frame recently fully stripped and repainted
- New sprocket carrier bearing and cush rubbers

Bad bits:

- Slight oil leak from top end. Probably just the rocker cover needs taking off and re-sealing.
- This is the biggie: Previous owner snapped off the stud on one of the shock mountings, I have repaired it by drilling and tapping and fitting an M6 bolt and washer. It passed an MOT like this, but to be safe I would suggest removing the entire stud and welding a new one on. I wouldn't recommend anyone else ride it in this condition, though it's been fine for me.

- Tank has been resprayed in matt black, looks awful, needs a respray. Also has a few dents.
- No side panels.
- Only a speedo, no other clocks.

I think I have listed everything here but obviously recommend viewing before you commit to anything. It's a good bike and a 99% complete project, just needs a bit of TLC before I would suggest relying on it for long distance riding.

Will swap for something interesting with an MOT. Feel free to PM me with suggestions. Can collect/deliver in my van.

Bike is located in lancashire.

Let me know.
