Hi

[Baldeagle]

Hello, my names Graham & I live in Bristol UK.

I've decided to go back to biking after a few years break & I've just bought my self one of these.

http://www.northbridgebikes.co.uk/html/st250-2.html

Took one for a test ride last week & was so impressed, I snapped one up. Delivered today but, I can't ride it yet as I've got to wait for the registration to come through (usually takes about a week).

Nice, very nice. Site doesn't say whether it's EFI or carburetor though. Welcome back to the club!

Im from UK now living in Beijing and used to go to Bristol Italian moto days each year lots of Italian cars and bikes in Bristol for the day great event;-) ...and lots of electrical issues and not starting cars

Welcome let us know who it goes

Thanks for the replies boys,

It's carb so,shouldn't have to many issues.

It's got lots of nice little touches to it as well & the build quality is great compared to lots of chinese bikes I've seen.

It's got electric & kick start & really good brakes being discs all round (twin pot calipers are a nice touch too).

Havent really thought about many mods yet although I'll definately change the spark plug & cover to NGK & also change most of the bulbs to LED.

Nice looking bike. TW200 clone? Looks like a CG250 engine to me.

very true about the carb thing only time i wish i had furl injection is when it comes to the petrol stations iv got such a limited range on my bike

[Kennon]

hey graham have you taken delivery of the bike yet?

It looks Galaxy sourced--MJH will be jealous...I remember Andy (I think was his name) who got a fuel-injected Galaxy and had nothing but problems/issues which were probably never resolved which marred an otherwise seemingly great (for Chinese) brand. Welcome, BTW!!
