My name is Janet and a beginner in learning to ride a motorcycle. I have recently purchased a used suzuki GZ250 (2007). Its all very exciting and very scary for me. I am 52 and fulfilling a childhood dream. I was wondering if anyone could advise me as to where I could get an owners manual for my bike? When I purchased this one, it did not come with the manual. Any suggestions?

I'm sure someone will be able to point you to a manual.

I found a few links to service manuals but not an owner's manual.

Might try contacting the Suzuki for the manual. Or maybe a local dealership being its a 2007.

here is everything you need to know about the gz250... well, that's what the site says

Suzuki GZ250 Forum Suzuki GZ 250 Home Page on GZ250Bikes.Com View topic - GZ250 Service Manual & Owners Manual - Download!

it looks like it's only for the 2006, but the site itself might point you in the right direction.Suzuki GZ250 Forum Suzuki GZ 250 Home Page on GZ250Bikes.Com Index

as far as the fear goes... take the MSF course, get some good gear and you'll be set.
fear is natural... it keeps you alive... once you fear nothing, that's when you kick it

have fun and ride safe...

Hi Janet.

Welcome to this forum and to the world of motorcycling.

I too recently bought a motorcycle and at the age of 59. While I had a motorcycle before it was a small bike and was many, many, many years ago. I hope you have as much fun as I am having.

You'll find that many here recommend the MSF course, as do I. This course provides a lot of useful information and the hands on experience. Passing this course greatly reduces a riders probability of being involved in an accident. There's also much good info to be found here on this site.

When you have time go to the control panel and fill out your personal information and other secrets, or not, depending on your wishes.
