    Hey all,
    Am trying to hunt down the GPZ250R base manual... I have found a copy of the
    ZZR250 supplement online, but the usual haunts (forums, manual sites) don't
    seem to have the GPZ base manual. I've found a GPX supplement, it also
    appears to need the base manual.

    Anyone know where I can find it? (with all the google searches been done
    with no luck.)

    Cheers,
    Adrian

    As he mentioned he has found both the GPX and ZZR supplemental manuals, but each of those still requires the base manual for all the
    bits common to the 2 bikes.

    Thanks GB,
    Had a fair dig through, worked out from various schematics that it's the
    GPX250 as sold here, diff to the ZZR. I'm sure some/lots parts are the same,
    but without knowing which, the schematics aren't much use : (

    As far as I know, there isn't any name swapping with the GPZ... but that's
    not saying much cause I don't know much! I know that the GPX and ZZR in the
    states is occasionally known as the EX250, but I haven't been able to find a
    manual for an EX250 either.

    Cheers,

    Nope. I borrowed a set of manuals at the time as I'm a cheapskate. ;-)

    That's the Japan-spec GPX250 that I had. The major differences to the
    GPX250R is an extra brake disk on the front, and the brake pedal/gear
    shifeter are alloy instead of chrome-plated steel.

    So do you need a manual for a GPX250 or a GPZ250?

    If you want the GPX250 manual, a few years ago I scanned & merged my
    GPZ250 "base manual" with my GPX250 "supplementary manual" to form
    GPX250Manual.PDF - if you do a Google for the file name you're bound to
    find it somewhere.

    If you specifically need a GPZ250 manual, I'm pretty sure mine is in a
    box in my caravan at Tarago.

    Hey BT,
    I've got both supplemental manuals, for the GPX and ZZR (I have a ZZR) and
    am looking for the GPZ base manual.
    If you can hunt down the box-dwelling GPZ manual, would you be interested in
    selling it, or loaning for scanning?

    Cheers,
    Adrian.

    I just located it, it was actually upstairs in a bookcase. Weird place
    for it, if you ask me!

    You can certainly have it as a loaner, what's your geographic location
    again?
