Hey. Im new to 250cc and bought a across a few montys back. So yesterday i bought a 1988 gpx250r. Got it at a cheap price with low ks on it. Ive looked at some specifications for it and all i find is that it spose to have a single disc brake front end but this one has twin disc. Any ideas why or what it is?
I concur with @Linkin, post a picture. You are correct as the gpx only has a single disc, perhaps someone fitted a zxr250 front end? A photo will soon tell us, the forks will tell us the story.
From memory there was a special edition only released in Japan with twin disks. The very first GPX250's were belt driven as well.
It wont allow me to post pic as it says its to large. Its chain driven. Hang on theres papers under the seat
If you have windows 7, open image in paint, hit resize, I do all of mine to 1000x750 and then upload to imgur. Copy bbcode img link and just paste it then post
its a GPX250R - II known as the EX250-G - Sold only in Japan, this version was known as the GPX-250R-II. It had dual front brakes and a wider wheel and tire (110/80-16). All other parts were identical to the GPX250-F model.
if you have a windows machine, then please install this app https://imageresizer.codeplex.com/ All you do is find your images in Windows explorer, right mouse and select Resize Pictures, select your resolution ( hint, I use medium) and you are done. Chris
its rare as in not many made it here, but there isn't alot of difference from the standard GPX so its not really rare if you know what I mean
Cheers for all your help. I got it for 200 bucks with history of all the previous owners. Im gonna fix her up a bit and register it
