I have now had my gn250 for 5 1/2 years and it has now done 55000 mlsof which I have done 23000mls.had no major problems but have replaced the usual wearing parts.i was fortunate in being given another gn250 for spares and last year bought another complete bike for £100,this one had new tyres,rebuilt front wheel,new chain and sprockets and battery so by my reckoning it was worth £100.it is used most days for a 18 mls round trip to work and I cant fault it.i have upgraded the headlight to a 55w halogen which is a great improvement,but apart from that it is still in standard form.as another poster commented they are quick off the mark up to about 45/50 mph then they struggle a bit.i have no intention of changing it,in my view an ideal short distance commuter which still returns 80mpg even equipped with a full rickman fairing,rickman panniers and top box
