Picking up my Ninja 250

[wrightme43]

Going now to pick up my new to me Ninja 250 ex motorcycle.
2005 model, Black/Silver. Green decals. 1565 miles. Pristine condition, garage kept.
I am so freakin excited I can hardly type. LOL
I decided to learn, and practice on a small light bike. When I am ready to upgrade, if I ever do. LOL I will give this to Tiff, and get the Honda 954 that a friend on here reccomends as the best bike available.
Today is practice friction zone on the clucth, and stopping over and over and over and over. LOL I probley take stuff to seriously but oh well.
I have helmet and gloves.
Ordered armoured riding boots, armoured riding gloves, armoured riding pants. Ordering armoured riding jaket, this week.

Sound like fun Steve. Learning to ride is always loads of fun. I learned on a 600 ninja and I wish I would have stared out on the 250. Good Luck and practice, practice, practice.

LOL! So you finally did it huh? Have fun, but be careful. I love the look of motorcycles, but would never get on one. I'd rather take my chances in a car especially on these roads here in Nassau

for a moment i thought you were getting a ninja from Asia that was gonna cook you meals, clean your house and call you Mr. Miyagi .
I have never been in a motorcycle but sounds like a lot of fun, just don't let Trinity take the bike for a ride .

She wont be able to ride with me for a while. I need lots and lots of practice and to complete my MSF course first. Not the law, I just care about her alot.
Full armor gear. I dont give a crap how goofy it looks. Imagine for a second what it would feel like to skid down the highway at 30 miles a hour. Full gear. Your probley a little hurt. No gear, your in the hospitol getting skin grafts. My friend here is a MSF instructor. He doesnt pull any punchs when it come to explaining anything about safety.

This is the most fun I have ever had with my pants on.
IT STINKING ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW
I havent been over 40 mph yet. Now it is supposed to rain for the next 5 days in a row. LOL

nice machine Steve, I love to ride, been a while since I last had a bike.

Nice bike. That is what I need to drive back and forth to work.
I learned on a CBR900R, I put about 8,000 miles on it then one day on a hell ride the oil plug fell out of the motor. Well you know where the oil plug is??? Coated the back tire and I took a spill. Lucky for me it was on a hell ride so I had on a full leather racing suit with armor, studded gloves etc. Only injury was a broke heel from hitting the road trying to hold the bike up and some minor bruises. The armor worked. If I would have just let the bike go I would not broke my heel. After rehab and bought a GSXR1100R and built it to the point I was scared to ride it and sold it. I planned on not getting another but only lasted 6 months and bought a TL1000R. I do not own a bike now. Best advise I can give is when you get "comfortable" riding it get rid of it. Good luck and be careful.

Looks very fun steve, glad you joined the club. I have been riding for the last 6 years and enjoy it quite a bit. I learned on a 2000 GSXR 750, that thing was a beast. I now ride a Z1000. Come on over and I will take you up to Mt. Rainier.

 

[spongebob lover]

ohh my !! hugeT that's a very nice bike .
I bet is a girl magnet .

 

[wrightme43]

Wow Tom, that thing is super pretty. I am still learning to ride. So I am going to stick to the little 35 mph roads around here till I get some experince. I would love to see what you guys have out in the northwest. I hear its awesome.

 

[Krish]

That's a nice bike Tom!!! If I ever got a bike, this would be the one...Closest thing to a car. Nothing like an 8.0L V-10 Viper motor
