Three blue new gens I saw in one day the last weekend one in aurora stuck in traffic on I-225, one in louiseville, and one near the westminster area.

Soujyu · August 12th, 2010, 11:37 AM

Saw a yellow pregen go eastbound on Anderson Road around 12:30pm. Rider appeared to be ATGATT.

Alex · August 12th, 2010, 10:46 PM

Blue new-gen in San Francisco near the Embarcadero. With a scooter lying on it.

Was in traffic with the family and couldn't stop, but Ann managed to snap a picture as we went past...

sergemoat · August 12th, 2010, 11:04 PM

Yesterday evening around 7pm in front of Renton motorcycles bout 5 new gens 3 excluding mine and a friends. I believe it was two blue and one red. One of the blue 250s had an interesting fender elimination solution with the stock license plate light (just the oval cylinder) attatched to two brackets to the left of the plate.

Note: scooter pic hobo is awesome.

Delta107 · August 13th, 2010, 11:38 AM

Scooter pic is awesome! lol I would be pissed if that was my ninja though.

Mac · August 13th, 2010, 10:34 PM

saw a decently modded red new gen in yuba city ca 2nd time in a couple weeks.

It looks like there's a note tucked in the windscreen, so I hope the person responsible is fessing up, though the least they could have done was lifted the scooter off (perhaps they didn't know how to engage the stand). I hope the scooter owner got a note too. Maybe the homeless guy in the background saw something? Maybe he saw who took the reflectors of the '09 Ninjette's front fender too!

JBar215 · August 16th, 2010, 12:40 PM

Yesterday I saw blue pre-gen with the orange ninja sticker. Heading south on highway 101 by the Betabel exit at 8:30 a.m. The bike had saddle bags and the the rider appeared to be wearing full gear.

ScorpionNinja · August 17th, 2010, 03:06 PM

During a solo 400 mile trip along the coast of Michigan, i passed a BLUE 08-09' Ninja 250R sitting in a guys front yard "FOR SALE". This was around the Lake Port area, off and near M-25 north.

oh, forgot to mention like 2 weeks ago, during my 2UP ride with my GF, we saw a YELLOW Pre-gen 250R!
On the corner of Union Lake road & Commerce road around in the Milford? area? ... during a butt-break!

but the ninja looks like it doesn't want any of that fatty...

But I did see a Black 08+ Ninja250R driving through DeWitt, MI, on Old 27 going south bound just past the bridge over 69... wearing a helmet, jeans, and a tee shirt...

Hadyn · August 19th, 2010, 05:44 PM

Saw a blue new-gen pulling into the Coleman Powersports in Falls Church right around 7pm.

Augusta, Maine, Walmart, Blazing out of the parking lot.
Blue pregen, rider with blue/black/white helmet. Anybody on here?

rockNroll · August 22nd, 2010, 07:40 AM

Green new gen at the Hobby Connection Friday night at the races.

Alex · August 22nd, 2010, 09:20 PM

Red new-gen in the parking lot of the Rock Store on tonight's episode of Entourage! (bottom left of picture)

toast · August 23rd, 2010, 08:29 PM

Today I saw a black new-gen Ninja heading into Mission on Harris road at around 6pm. The rider had a red jacket and a black helmet, and would have passed me on my black '09...I'm in all black.

I saw another black new-gen on Sunday on the Langley by-pass with a woman in an black and white jacket.

My husband laughs at how excited I get when I see another Ninjette, but I think he's jealous because he almost never sees another bike like his!

highpsiguy · August 24th, 2010, 08:12 PM

Saw a green pre gen in Athens Ga today at 3/15 pm leaving the Walmart on Eastside. Flat black helmet, backpack- stopped in the yield lane to turn west on Highway 78 and fiddled with something before it sped off. Looked like a dude.... 5 ft 10 165lbs- yes I am an observant kinda fella.

Athens Ga is full of Ninja 250s. Athens is a big college town full of scooters, bicycles and the like.

Rosie · August 25th, 2010, 05:55 PM

San Diego, CA, 5:45 pm just saw a blue '08+ at the corner of Black Mountain Rd and Mira Mesa Blvd, turning left into Black Mtn Rd

I think the person responsible was killed and is lying with a blanket over him in the back ground

inbox526 · August 26th, 2010, 04:56 PM

I saw a 250 with the new sportisi exhaust, removed airbox, clip ons, removed passenger pegs and completely streetfightered in the front at Top Notch Motorsports.

Don't be offended but, I sat on your bike.

I love the clipons! And the mechanic let me hear the exhaust too. Man is that loud!!

edit: oh yea, it was blue! What was left of the fairings anyway.

OUCH MATT!!! I was always told that sitting on another mans bike without his ok was like kissing his girlfriend without him looking. Some things ya just don't do whether mechanic said so or not.

highpsiguy · August 26th, 2010, 07:43 PM

I saw Ryan Ignatius on his blue 2006 Ninja 250 today at 4:30 pm in Athens Ga on Highway 78 heading west towards town in front of Athens First and the ACC Police Dept.

I recognized his bike and gear from here, ADV forum and Ninja250.org. Hoping one day to meet in person and look at that fishguy rack he is sporting.

demp · August 27th, 2010, 08:51 AM

I've seen a green SE goin north on allen road/ dufferin quite a bit...

Momaru · August 27th, 2010, 12:11 PM

Noticed a pair of new-gens parked in a commuter lot on the VaTech campus yesterday, a red/black '10 SE and a black whose unicorn rider was just dismounting. Still kickin' myself for not stopping, but I was in my cage and didn't have time (or wanna be too creepy).

Tofergstaff · August 29th, 2010, 11:30 AM

Black Ninja 250R 08+ in the Lansing Community College West Campus parking lot.

Looked like all it had was some frame sliders as far as cosmetic stuff. Anyone on here??

bdavison · August 29th, 2010, 04:19 PM

Spotted a 09 Special Edition like mine going down Watson Blvd today in Warner Robins. So now there are 2 SE's around here.

Twas I, most likely. I live right there off of a Black Mountain Rd side-street.

Well, IIRC, I DID pass another blue bike that day going the opposite direction on Black Mountain, but that was at ~7:45AM and I often travel the road multiple times daily. My blue rims are hard to notice under all the black brake dust and road grime, but that would seal it for sure! I need to clean them this week if possible. Oh, and I'm still sportin' a GA plate.

Yay! I was hoping it was one of you guys!

I was in my cage that day so waving was out of the question

I go through that light twice a day on my commute to work. I'll look for you now on

It took a while for me.

Heck, I stil can't be sure because the blue rims and GA plate should stick out a bit, so it could have been someone else. It'd just be weird if someone else was noticed on the street before me when I'm on it at least a few times a day and rarely see another blue '08.

Wave in your cage anyway. If I notice, I'll wave back.

That's a good idea, unless I have cars on front of me and they might not like the honking

very true, but if the driver in front looks in the rear mirror, they'll see you waving at the bike, they'll get the point. i think.

I couldn't see the plate because you were coming the opposite direction from me. Going home going east on Mira Mesa Blvd I turn left (north) on Black Mtn Rd. You were going west on Mira Mesa turning south on Black Mtn Rd

Didn't notice the rims because by the time I recognized a Ninjette was there it was time for me to turn

Either that or he'll come out and slap me in the face yelling "who the @#/& are you honking to???"

Just kidding.. it would be cool if I could wave at a fellow Ninjette owner
