Been awhile guys so busy here after the move to Florida from Arizona. Bikes at 50k plus now and still going. Ride it daily 22 miles to work 22 mile back. Take it on bike rides with a group. Note my valves have yet to move. Not one valve clearance has been done they are staying the same. Florida takes its toll on it tho. twice a year i do dielectric grease on on the harness and lights. pictures or it isnt true so here they are. God bless the ninja 250

Nice! 50k Ninja 250...what a sight! Just had my valve clearance adjusted this Monday at about 24k and only the exhaust valves were tight. I'm looking to take mine to 50k good luck with your bike.

You know, I dislike people when they say 250-300cc are great beginner or learner bikes. They are Great bikes overall! I had a 600cc Zx-6r as my beginner learner bike, too tempting to speed and get into an accident, expensive insurance, gas mileage was so so. Like you I try to ride it daily, even in torrential rain but I'll stop once it freezes over here in late dec-march.

These bikes are a joy to ride

Totally agree, a bike is a bike. Ive had 600's to Superbikes...all came and went but the 250 is still with me. I will definitely get a bigger bike again later but will always keep the lightweight machine.

Yeah, these bikes are so much fun! I’ve ridden my CBR600RR a lot less after getting Ninja 250.
