Very likely Timbo.
I'll be the one with a siezed red and white TZR250, a black ZXR250A with no fuel, a conked out Velocette, or in the ditch with a Triumph Daytona somewhere around!

One day I'll be able to afford a proper bike again

Thanks Timbo. Problem is, the tap doesn't line up with the pointer and its not fitted correctly anyway!
I've got to change the cam chain at some point so I'll sus it all out then. Meanwhile I'll keep a close eye on the oddometer.

Nice thing about riding a 250 is that you get more than 120 miles to a tank!

Immaculate SP2 slowed down to check on me when I'd run out of fuel on my black kawasaki ZXR250A.
A guy on a red VRF had stopped to help.

All my fault. I've had two kwakers now and I couldn't understand the fuel tap on either of 'em. Running on reserve doesn't leave you much when you run out!

Had a maxiss fitted to front of my ZXR250. So far its performed well - only winter riding so far.
I'd like to fit one to the rear, but they don't do the size. Looks like I'll have to shell out for a Bridgestone (BT092 I think).

Brilliant site.
Thanks for that. Just my sort of thing.

Yes JP mine was completely standard (apart from Evo cans).
Brilliant, brilliant machine. Dropped in a low speed slide and ins wrote it off.

My SP1 was noticeably better on fuel than my Storm.

Like to help Beamish but I did mine 40 years ago!
Can't remember what I had for breakfast let alone stoichiometric whatever. I do remember something about steam tables and reciprocating steam engines....... enthalpy?? or was it entropy??
Anyway good luck with it.

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE

Finally the madness has to stop (shopping that is)

Totally different machine I know, but I recently fitted Maxxis to my ZXR250R and so far its working well.

But then I never had a problem with BT014s on the SP1 (except that they wear out real quick).

Doesn't look like it needs that much attention!

Chris, They've all got time for that!!

Never seen the great man live, but have a couple of his CDs. Brilliant

I'm also in the grumpy old git category..........and like to listen to Joe Satriani!!

Must be some sort of link there

Youngest son (23 - also biker) spends most of his life playing "World of Warcraft" or some such thing.

Friend of mine had one. In fact he came to one of our meets on it. Eventually px'd it for SP1. Brilliant machine. Low, light, screams its head off and goes very well indeed. A really good machine if you can find one that hasn't had too much abuse. Wanted one myself, but bought a ZXR250 Kwacker inste...
