this kid is gonna kill himself
I posted a craigslist ad a few weeks back selling all the oem parts I took off my '01... all4 signals, rear pod and tail lenses, bar ends, reflectors and a few others. This guy calls today wanting to buy everything and said he will meet me in an hour a few blocks from my house. I pull up to meet and this "kid", can't be any older than 19, steps out of his truck with his ripped up jeans half way tucked into his cowboy boots with a cut off shirt ripped all the way down both sides and probably the biggest straw cowboy hat I've ever seen and a belt buckle the size of a dinner plate. After the deal is done he says he has only had the bike three weeks and bought it in mint condition. I ask sooooo why the need to buy all the parts? He says I wrecked it on a gravel road racing my buddies atv . The very next thing out of his mouth is do you know much about installing 2 stage nos systems? I said, on a car? He says.. no the ninja!, I figure with a glasspack and nos I can double the horses and it'll run at least 150mph. Poor bike.

He must be a disciple of the "ride it like you stole it" school of thought.

It wouldn't run 150mph with 55hp. You need like 80 or 90. should have told him go alcohol or go home

Wow, a Ninja 250 chassis at 150mph? It's already fast enough in stock form. That kid has a death wish, no brains, or testicles larger than all ours.

You need more than hp to increase top speed. On stock gearing you'd have to rev to like 20k.

You'd have to be running 16/38 to do 149mph at redline.

I'm from northeast mo. Little farm town with 2500 people. But most people around here who act and dress like this have never spent a day on the farm. Easy to spot them, they try way too hard to be a hillbilly.

In Alberta, do not go into a small town bar by yourself if your passing through. If you do, do not try to pick up any of the women. Thats just asking for a world of hurt as fighting can be the main activity/fun for the locals, we have a lot of rednecks mostly working in the patch.
