Here is my pride and joy :) Only had it 1 week!

I'd been looking for a 250R for a few weeks, came across this and pretty much told him I'd take it the same night he put it up for sale. He wanted $8k but I talked him down to $7900 so you can tell how good my negotiation skills are ;) It was well worth it because it came with a Yoshimura pipe and a seat cowl, usually buying them separately would've cost ~$1300AUD and thats exactly what I'd planned to buy if I went with a brand new 250R.
Only had 20KM on the clock (12 miles) - He was selling it because he lost his license due to a DUI and realized he wouldnt get to ride it for a long time so .. :)
Modifications I have planned:
- Removing the back pegs and installing Zartans hanger
- Might sell this pipe and buy a carbon Yoshi instead
- Installing a Targa Fender Eliminator
- Red stripe for each wheel
- Lowering it 2"
- Hell might even paint it white one day :cool:
Oh and bikes are expensive here, buying a Ninja 250R brand new from a dealer would've been about $8000 ride away with no extras.
Also went with this beautiful helmet ;)
