you said: can any one tell me if their is a more popular bike exhaust that will <BR> fit the gf250 1986 as ican not seem to locate one thankyou an after <BR> ...
Hi, to everyone. Have just bought one of these and seems good. Its not pristine of course but for a$500 what can you get? It seems a little screamer and only...
Hi Mark, Sounds like you've got yourself a bargain. They have a lot of features for that money: the high-tech 10-piston brake setup, good fuel range, and all ...
Hey found a GS 250 garaged for the last 13 years. Owner says it was good when it went in but it won't start now! Any advise? Asking $300 Missing left side...
Hi James (?), It sounds like a bargain, but that all depends. You should be aware that these bikes are very rare, getting parts for them is reasonably ...
Hey thanks CARL but I live in Tamworth NSW. BIKE is at service shop being inspected and quoted. I have not bought it yet as it is not yet running. I don't wont...
The GS250FW is rare here in Australia but unfortunately not valuable. Most I see for sale (rarely) are in pretty bad condition and go for less than $1000,...
hi, This is jeremy. I have a GF 250 bike. i usually dunn park my bike out in the lawn as my mates have taken up the car space in the garage. recently there has...
Jeremy, Seems unlikely you would damage anything else in such a fall. Unless the cable broke inside - is there resistance when you pull the lever? Can you see...
Thanks John, manage to have smooth tranmission from gear to gear now and the bike doesn't stall when it stop or idle. I reckon i did not manage to fully clean...
Got it for $300. Needs carbs rebuilt due to fuel blokage. The bike is near new, black in colour and only 20,000km. Garaged since 1993. Another $500 and i'll...
Assuming that you'll be doing this yourself, I'd recommend you download the workshop manual from this site - then go and look for a GSX250F (Across) manual as...
Thankyou Carl, I downloaded the PDF's They were helpful! Do you know if the Across has alot in commen or just the carbs? Also where would I find this carb...
The Across has (what I believe to be) a later version of what's in the GS250FW, the manual won't help you with specifics (valve clearances etc), but it will...
Thanks, The carb cleaner worked so well it stripped the paint clean of the carbs!!! It took me almost 2 HRS to get the air filter box out??? Not sure how you...
Excellent :) Those air boxes are a PITA.. I found that I could pull the carbs out before the air box with quite a bit of force, but it is hard :) Someone ...
The GF250 (and presumably the GS250FW) has a 13000 redline.. Like many 4 cylinder 250s they operate best at higher revs, usually above 5000rpm. The gearing...
My bike reads 11,500rpm redline, but I read somewhere that they are 10% out which makes it 10,350rpm redline. I am not a speed demon and for that matter am...
Hi There, You'll find that the bike has more usable power (for a 250) above 5krpm, I'd be keeping it above that - just in case you need to accelerate away from...
Hi, not sure on you revs but my 250gf red lines at 13,000..and is good for putting about at around 6 to 8 thousand revs. It has a dead spot between 8 and 8,700...
Once again thankyou. I should imagine that I will have to rejet as the exhaust will not be standard anyway. Also I can only fit 2 filters not 4, and the K&N...
6-8000 rpm putting ? My car redlines at 6krpm ! So if I tried to ride my bike at 3krpm it would just stall? This must be why they aren't so good on fuel? What...
I used to own a GF250 previously. I can only say that I actually found that it would happily putt around town in 5th, though I found 4th in town a bit more...
Thanks for the advise, handy to know! SV650 that's exactly what i was thinking of.... For cutting in half! No seriously as a reverse Trike! I take it you own...
hi, i have being reading the manual about changing the oil filter. but i'm little confused with the mention of oil pressure valve and stuff. what's the big...
Hi Jeremy, I wrote a short procedure for oil change on a GF250 a long time ago. I have attached it, hopefully it is of some use. Regards, John Avis ... ...
