This was a recent aquisition, an unique oportunity here in Portugal, since there are no private GP 250 competition here and so, no similar bikes (only 1 or 2 all over the country). The bike is in good shape overall, we made a first test on Estoril Circuit last 7 July 2007 and 8 July 2007 on 2 different Trackdays, a total of 5 hours ride and the engine / chassis behaved well.
The performance is astonishing, we'd never experience such a vibrating & thrilling bike on track, as the matter of fact it was Pedro's first time on a track and the first time riding this beast, but it was an incredible sensation.
The purpose of this bike aquisition is: TRACKDAYS :)
