Greeting all. Came here from the Brotherhood forums. Wanted to join and say "hey". <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s --> Dude
I'm state-side (USA) in the Seattle WA. area. Seriously thinking about a FZR 250 for some serious fun. Don't know how hard they are to get here, but I can always check into it for free. Currently riding an 94 FZR1000. I still think it would be interesting to have a bike from both ends of the spectrum though.

Welcome mate! Thats abit of a downgrade from ur 1000, could u really handle the difference ? <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s -->
Difference I like to think I can. But by having both, or all three if I throw a 400 or 600 in there, each would teach a different aspect of riding that will better the overall confidence and ability. Throttle control on the 1000 is both crisp and touchy. I feel the 600/400 have the best of both worlds. The 600 pairing up with the 1000, while the 400 pairs with the 250. The 250 now, knife edge handling from what I have heard. Not nearly as much power as the bigger breathern, but ample enough for accelerating the heart-rate. If I have missed the mark, so be it, but I'd still like to have one. <!-- s:-? --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_Eyecrazy.gif" alt=":-?" title="Eye Crazy" /><!-- s:-? --> Dude
he Hey Dude, Welcome to our forum. First off, nice selection on having a FZR1000 for a motorcycle. The FZR250 is a nice bike to ride its smooth and not to bad on power, nothing compared to a 1000cc of course but they are both in diffrent worlds. The FZR250 has very soft front forks but this can be fixed my adding larger slims in the forks and a set of brand new springs and new oil would fix it up. The rear shock seems to handle alot of thrashing, but of course a strip down and rebult with greased bush's would make in alot more responsive. Engine wise, aslong as the carburetors are tuned correctly there shouldnt be a problem there. All in all they are a fun responisve bike to ride. And they are easy to ride quick. Any ways nice to have you mate. Please by all means if you have MSN Messinger add me; <!-- e --><a href="mailto:Jarmizz@hotmail.com">Jarmizz@hotmail.com</a><!-- e --> James
