see in what you guys think about my 250 :)
hey all got my 250 a couple of months ago and it was a steeeeeeeeeal!!! I've always wanted a bike and shockingly my fiancé who is full of worries supported me 100%!!! I was dead set on a 2012 car 250 because i've always loved honda and i think the Ninja gods weren't too happy about that because they blessed with an absolutely amazing find!!! I was looking on craigslist just to see what was out there literally hours before i planned on going to the honda dealership to sign the papers for the cbr when an ad for a 2011 ninja 250 ad popped up literally the second i clicked th motorcycle section of the craigslist home page and all the guy wanted was $2,800. It was some rich kid that was just trying to get rid of his practically brand new 250 (literally brand new only had 2,600 miles on it) because he had just got his first bike and needed "a lot more power to satisfy his need for speed" thats literally what the 19 yr old 5'8 no more than 150 pound kid said to me. I ended up talking him down to $2,300 paid cash for it on the spot and this is what was in my driveway that night tell me what you guys think!!!

also all i've done to it is spray paint the wind screen gloss black and replaced the instrument panel bulbs with leds (which by the way is a million times more difficult/annoying than replacing 8 lightbulbs should ever be) and changed the oil and in less than 2 months i've already put close to 2,000 miles on my new 2 wheeled rain, sleet, hail, or snow daily driver and i can honestly say they have been the most exhilarating pulse pumping ear to ear grinning fun filled 2,000 miles i ever could of imagined. I love my ninja **** the CBR!!!

You got burned. Tell you what, since I'm feeling generous, I'll take that mistake off your hands....I'll even give you the full $2,300 you paid for it!

Lol or stupid, which is probably closer to the truth, based on what Zaine said the kid told him about getting a bigger bike. |

Awesome deal. Also, "literally" doesn't mean what you think it means.
