Hello all I'm Zach!
Great to have found this place. Probably the single most active and helpful Ninja forum I have come across since searching for some answers in the past week.
Spent some time in the Army, going back to school at University of North Texas for a Liberal Arts Degree in History and hope to be a history teacher soon. Also a single full time dad to two squirts who drive me crazy lol. That was one reason for the bike.
Other main one is I commute about 100 miles a day, maybe more.
Anyway I bought a 2008 Ninja 250r with about 23k miles on it. It needs some work (was not as advertised) but I think I can get it up to par with some help on here. I'm not an electrical guy thats for sure. I can do nuts and bolts type of mechanical work but man, when it comes to things like these carbs and petcocks I am totally lost in the sauce on how y'all can get that stuff done.
Apologies for droning on, but yeah, that's me in a nut shell.
Here’s my project thread
