The Bonneville
I got the Bonneville Blacknew in 2006. It is a nice naked - nothing special in terms of performance but predictable handling and a great looking machine. I picked up a 2012 Ninja 650 this past spring...

And it's about time you stopped all this talk about bike made anywhere else but America. Discussions of foreign motorcycles will only confuse real Americans. And what's with all this 250 stuff?...

Good to hear it.
I'm just beginning to plan a ride from Victor, NY (western, NY) to White Sulfur Springs, although I might tow through Pennsylvania to Winchester, VA and ride from there.

What?
I have to ask...
Is there anyone else out there who finds this 'Tighten the Mirror' thread both astounding and frightening?

The primary question is,"Fix what?"
Given that you're unable to test ride the bike, tank rust may not be the only problem needing resolution. Clearly, the tank needs to be cleaned and sealed and...

I was 35 on the first trip. 67 this...

There can be enormous difference in the jetting when these roll off the assembly line. Our '08 has pulled red line in every gear since new. Never any hesitation off the line. No flat spots. A great...

Here's my '12 650 and '08 250.
Hard to believe they are manufactured by the same motor company, eh?
I'm 6'2", 195 lb. and comfortable on both. The riding position on the 250 is just slightly...
