    G'day everyone, bought not one but two rusting gsx250's from a fisherman for almost nothing- a complete 1980 and an 83 in a box! Nothing for it but to customise 'em so hopefully i can get some advice from those of you have been there and done that. Given the cafe racer treatment to the 83 (sorry, yeah yeah I know) but doing a cuter stock-custom setup on the 80 for my partner, though she doesn't know that yet. It would seem in motorcycle world the 80's were a long time ago (seems like yesterday to me) getting an ID on them has been tricky, so parts hunting has been interesting. Any other gsx fans out there in Adelaide or anywhere, would love to get in touch. Having said that am now infatuated with pretty much any 70's era Kawasaki, so keen to hear about your adventures too. Cheers, Dingo.
