Cool little black ninja

Hi all,

Basically I'm a 23 yo average guy. I got my motorcycle licence at 22 and decided to start small ... since I love speed .

I decided to buy a ninja 250 for my first bike as I hear they are awesome beginner bikes. And I got my hands on this baby. It was abit of bargain ... But the bike was a mess. From then on I started a seemingly never ending journey of mods.

Welcome! Do tell on the mods.... I see windscreen, some kind of change to the fairings (sticker removal?), rim stripes, levers and fender delete. Pretty much cosmetic stuff.

Done anything else?

Since you opened with the "beginner bike" thing, a bit of advice from a much older and more experienced rider... stick with this bike for awhile. REALLY get to know it. The party starts and 9k rpm and it's a blast!

I started on a 650. Then I had a 500. Then I got the Ninjette and it was the most fun by far, especially once I started riding it hard. You'll hear that a lot from people who have had several bikes.

As you can see from the sig I now have a supersport... but will most definitely return to little bikes in the future.

I've had this bike for almost a year now and I've spent far more time tinkering with it then riding it. The bike in the picture was how it was the day I bought it.
Mods done up till now:
Changed front suspension with stiffer springs and heavier oil and lowered
Woodcraft clipons
Throttle cable tie mod
Headlight cover
Airbox delete to k&n pod filter
NGK spark plugs
Aftermarket filter for kleen air system and gearbox breather
J.P.R black and gold chain
47T rear sprocket
Jardine gp1 full exhaust
Frame sliders
Gsxr600 shock
Custom turn signals on tailsection
Power commander 5 + auto tune
Seat cowl
New fairings
Changed left and right fairing indicators with generic black smoked LEDs
Venhill braided lines
New dogbones to raise rear
Gold front and rear discs
Black front and rear calipers
Custom stickers
Modded front sprocket cover
Changed fairing and tank bolts to gold

I think that sums everything. On the way I have a tire hugger and I'm planning on turboing the bike, but lately the bike is misbehaving which is setting me back + work doesn't help either.
