RE: [suzuki250fours] gf250s electics

Cheers John,
I'll post my photos ASAP
If anyone could cross reference their bike with my photos i would be grateful
Or if anyone is wrecking a bike with ignitor

Muchly appreciated.

Luke

I just checked the settings of the photo section of the Yahoo group page and
it seems that members weren't allowed to upload photos. I have changed the
setting so you should be able to upload now.

I dont't have my GF250 anymore so I can't help you with a photo of the
wiring. However, I have been told by a Suzuki dealer (who borrowed my old
bike once to help him fix another customer's) that the ignitor is a common
problem.

Incidently I am in the market for a cheap bike and wouldn't mind another
GF250. If anyone has a working one for sale in NSW please let me know.

Thanks.

John Avis
