She had the SRX250 for 13 years. In that time I had to replace the carb diaphragm, carb boots, fuel level float and needle valve, and the petcock diaphragm. When the petcock failed the bike dropped the entire tank of fuel on the garage floor. All told $346.81 in parts back in 2007.

We should have got her a Ninja 250.
