Trista, Looks terrific. Nice bike too. You made a great choice. The 250R is a great riding bike. The "R" stands for Rush.

Would have gotten the green one but they destroyed the look with the '09. Besides isn't it fact that black is the fastest (so says the hubby with the black ZX14)?

You're right if the ZX14 had come in green he would have gotten it instead. That will be the next upgrade I'm sure.

I` m not sure what that white panel is all about in the 09. Is it a decal? If it is, a hair dryer will dispose of it nicely. My bike came with Monster Graphics--the hair dryer took care of that kid stuff---stuff like that also attracts cops (I know because I used to be one) I do like the green.

I think Alex is talking about the tricolor. I don't think it's a decal, but I could be wrong.

I think the white stuff (paper, panel) is the peelable type protective sheets like you see on automobiles. Could be wrong.;)

That green and BLACK bike looks good. The white part kills it. Kawasaki went over the top here. If that white part is painted on, they should have made that part green. IMHO that looks best.

The new green 09 looks good in person. I saw it at the Toronto motorcycle show. It is vinyl over green.

Trista, your christmas gift is possibly one of the best gifts someone could get: a motorcycle.


My gift from my wonderful fiance was:

8 drawer, 36" tool chest.

Its not a motorcycle, but we already have two of them!

Syphen, A hair dryer will dispatch that white vinyl to the trash post haste. Of course then the bike would look like an 08. A small price to pay.

I know, after 19 years you'd think I would have learned my lesson. But boys will be boys, and isn't it "The bigger the better", or maybe that was in reference to something else.:thumbup:

No, you've got that right... both ways! :D
