Replacement for GPZ and Trip in California?

[John Soliday]

...yeah, but it's "oil cooled" vs. our modern GPZ's with water cooling ;-)
I'm not sure if the 1250 motor is more "crisp" as it's carb's just like the
GPZ unless I missed a model year somewhere.

My wife & I have both.

The 1250 is a sweet machine, much more modern, crisp, etc.   As John 
implies, hard to go wrong with it.
