Yeah they got it pretty good down there!!
For example in victoria you can have a RGV250 on your L's but not in NSW..
What a load of shit!!
I got one anyway for my first road bike highly reccomended for a good powerfull learner's bike trust me they rip cbr 250's to shred's..
CBR250's are way over rated anyway! There all noise and no go!!

hell, any 2 smoker 250cc would just beat a 4 stroke 250cc...

Wether it be RGV, NSR, YZ, RS....

Just the 4 stroke are 50x more reliable...

Nothing fun about a 2 stroke road bike.... If you want it to perform you have to be constantly in powerband, constantly shifting gears, constantly re-building them, have the hassle of filling up the oil RES, having to carry around a small bottle of oil for just incases... The list can go on forever...

Don't get me wrong 2 stroke road bikes are ok I guess... (hell my missus owns a NSR 250..)


But after the countless storys i've heard about them and seeing it first hand, I would suggest a 4 stroke any day of the week...

haha just got through reading all the sumoto threads, what a pisser.

to be honest id be very wary of a 2nd hand 250, with the gearbox being ground up, dropped etc, is it really worth just getting a newy and selling it off? the retail value seems to be pretty good on alot of them.

going down the rta for me bike liscense tommorow, wish me luck

Does the 04 gix have a slipper clutch Glen# 159??
Also Glen the bike test is easy mate it's just like the Knowledge test for a car your gonna ace it trust me it's all common sense!!

[GLEN #159]

No slipper clutch on the 04 range...
