Smile Gotta ignore the jerks...

My Ninja is a pre-gen. 1999. Has the lime green and purple paint scheme.

Guys at work ask me degrading questions about it all the time. Especially strange is that one older guy (63 years old, but looks 90). He originally asked me if I bought it from a queer. Now every day he asks me "Did you ride in side saddle today?" Everybody gets a big laugh and I just smile and laugh too.

The real riders have never said anything negative. One guy is the local 1% biker club president and he has the attitude that anybody on two is cool with him. Nice guy, but I wouldn't want to piss him off!!

All of my coworkers know that I have 3 licensed and insured bikes to choose from every day. They are always surprised that 95% of the time I choose the 250 to ride the 21 miles of interstate on my commute. The 'lil Ninja is comfortable, stable, handles great, goes plenty fast enough, has low maintenance costs and just plain makes the ride enjoyable!
