hello friends,
just a zong 250gs rider in phoenix..

about bike...
it was bought by original owner in 2006 in california..
his son hated it..
they rode it a measly 250 miles then it sat..and sat.. until I purchased her about 3 months ago...
she directly went to a shop and had the OIL and gas changed.. tank and carbs cleaned..
new battery.. fired right up...
(did find the main jet needle spring was missing when I pulled the carb to find out why it sputterd around 6,000k rpm) bought a yamaha one from the local dealer..bam hit a quick 70mph and no more bogging
I ride 30 miles a day here in phoenix it is summer 110 degrees...
I am up to 3903 miles as of today...

I do have all 3 books
components(awesome exploded views)
owners manual
and the maintenance manual (shop break down)
----------------------------------------------------

this weekend I did the fork oil

it was over 80 mL low... and was like vegetable oil..
after a recommendation from a member here said to use dexron V!
no leaks from seals before ..possible QC at the factory oversight?
either way rides alot I mean alot smoother.. no more diving...
----------------------------------------------------
just put on a New RK 530x108 Heavy duty chain...
New spark plug and valve adjustment...

---------------------------------------------------
still doing the break in recommendations
tightening and adjusting..
-----------------------------------------------------
she runs like a champ.. fires right up.. idles great .. runs quick
considering I ride in 100 degree weather in traffic it is holding up great
plus the roads here suck with holes and grooves everywhere..

hope to have a great time here
