Title: Suzuki GSX250 1981
Post by: barneyk on August 22, 2008, 11:32:50 AM

Hello everyone,
I have recently bought a Suzuki GSX250 from 1981, and I intend to do a bit of work on it to get it more reliable for my daily commute and trips on weekends(I would opt for a larger bike, though insurance at 19 isnt very wallet-friendly...).
How hard/easy would it be to fit an electric starter onto it? Could it be something I do myself without botching the bike?
Also, I dont suppose anyone knows where to get front indicators for it?
Cheers,
Barney

A GSX 250 ought to have an electric starter though, shouldn't it? In fact, did any GSX250's actually have a kick starter?

Hi Barney

Try www.crooks-suzuki.co.uk for indicators.

I don't now the address but if you google M&P Accessories they supply decent quality pattern indicators that you would be hard pressed to differentuate from stock.

Or if you know where an autojumble is held you might strike lucky and get some from there.

Good luck.

Cheers
