welcome to the forum - good luck with your bike hunt!

I don't know how far you're willing to go or if you MUST have a certain color, but these were posted a couple of days back...

Welcome - if you are willing to do any driving try looking on CL or eBay for dealers near you. You might be surprised.

Thanks for the links! Ill be looking into the bikes. Im eager for the NJ BRC courses to come out so I can swap out my permit for my license! Then....happiness in its purest form.

I stopped by my dealer the other day. He saw that I was young and toyed with me. Offered a 2009 250R to me for 4,743 out the door. I walked out. Ive found another shop (among the 18 I checked out) How does 4,350 Out the door for a 2009 Kawasaki Ninja 250R sound? Yay or Nay?

given the price increase not too bad - I don't know what taxes and whatnot are in your area - but I bought my bike in WV when you couldn't find one anywhere for $4183 otd...

Dave, define OTD. Also, what is the sales tax where you live?

7% tax....sorry for not defining. OTD means OUT THE DOOR. After any and ALL surcharges are added, registration with the DMV, Freight and prep, taxes, etc..

$4200 OTD isn't bad at all on an '09 since it list for 3999 or 4099 depending upon color.

O.G. I had to respond to this one from a "Soulmate" $4200 OTD for a new 250cc motorcycle. We all say it is a great deal. In 1963 I bought a brand new loaded to the gills (Leather interior and all the whistles and bells) Corvette for $3900. It was a silver split window coupe. How the times have changed! Guess I am looking back--will be 67 in a few days. I have to do something really crazy for the big 67--maybe go for skydive #236? Will keep you posted.

I understand. I was going to put $3500, but I couldn't bring myself to do it. Apparently I REALLY like my lil' Ninja.
