    Figured id say hello, just joined the site. This is my first bike period to work on or ride if i get to that point... its a 1974 suzuki gt250L its rough n has no spark of course so i guess start at the coils. anyways it was free w/ key and clear tittle so why pass it up.

    Hey Gibs07, welcome to the forum, she certainly looks a rough diamond.. but a bit of elbow grease and she should come up tops.

    If you looking for patrs, I would suggest having a look at  Paul Miller in the States, he has heaps of parts.

    Also have a look at  the projects page on www.netbikes.com.au, Chris has restored  a few Gt250's of this vintage and his workmanship is incredible.

    thanks

    Chris

    Hey Gibs07
    Welcome to the forum. You certainly have a project ahead of you, but hey, that's half the fun. You'll find plenty of help on the forum, I am currently finishing a Suzuki GT250 X7, its a 78 model.
    We love to see project bikes come back to life, hope you'll keep us updated with photos and text during your journey, all the best.
