New Massachusetts Rider and Ninja Owner
I completed the rider course and bought my first bike two weeks ago. It is a 2004 250cc Ninja. I am hooked. Just saying hello, and looking for advice. Currently that advice could be about the fact that I am replacing the springs in the front end, must I do the rear shock too? Any thoughts?

Where abouts in Massachusetts are you? I'm down on the south shore. Stay safe out there, lots of tourism this time of year here and they of course cannot drive.

Welcome!
Why are you replacing the front springs? What's wrong with them?
