2004 ninja 250 on a twisty back road.
Riding with the group of 650’s, 900’s, 1000’s, even a Ducati V4. The little ninja did good. Your riding on the back of a 2004 ninja 250, mods at the time of this video are JRE exhaust, stock air box and filter, Dyno Jet needles with stock jets 2.5 turns out on the fuel screws, Bridgestone Battle axe tires, Sonic .95kg fork springs, 08-12 ninja 250 rear shock, Venhill racing stainless front and rear brake lines, Maxima DOT 5.1 brake fluid. 08-12 ninja 250 clutch and EBC 15% clutch springs, 15 tooth front sprocket. The GoPro made it look like I was going over the line, I was close but not going over it, I may have touched it a few times lol. I never been on this road before so I was riding a little less aggressive then usual.
I am not a great rider, still learning so don’t be to hard on me. |

It was, just goes to show you don’t need a big bike to keep up and have fun. I hear it all the time “ I can’t ride with them they all have 750’s and 1000’s”. It doesn’t really matter in the twisties what size bike you have, it’s all about cornering and with small displacement bikes keeping your average speed up.

It's the Maxima DOT 5.1 brake fluid that gives you the edge.

Plus you can talk trash to your buddies in bigger bikes. He was riding a 2019 CB650R.
