Newbie in SD
Just wanted to say "Hello all" and introduce myself. I live in the Black Hills of South Dakota. My kids are grown and in college, so now it's time for ME to have fun and do the things I want to do.
Anyway, I was a dirt bike girl until an accident that had me sidelined for a year. After looking at the Ninja 250 for a few years, I finally rode one. Then I had to bring it home. I was nervous to be back on a motorcycle, but this bike is so newbie-friendly, I am not worried that it'll get away from me. I absolutely love it and I can't wait to put more miles on. If only I didn't have to work.. The tips and information I have gathered here have certainly helped me already. I sincerely appreciate all who share their knowledge and experiences. Quick question - and it's probably been addressed already and I just haven't found the thread. I need a jacket that is made for a shorter, bustier woman. When I get one to fit over the "girls", it's too big in the waist and usually rides up under my neck, which is very uncomfortable with the helmet and all. I have a Scorpion right now, and it's nice, but not as comfortable as it could be. I appreciate any suggestions. Thanks! |

Hi Carol -
Definitely post up in the Gear section for any info on some potential jackets. There are a couple threads (linked below), but none of them are all-encompassing. You could certainly tag on to one of those, or start a new one; your choice. http://www.ninjette.org/forums/showthread.php?t=104733 http://www.ninjette.org/forums/showthread.php?t=29703 http://www.ninjette.org/forums/showthread.php?t=98375 http://www.ninjette.org/forums/showthread.php?t=40559 http://www.ninjette.org/forums/showthread.php?t=37560

Thanks everyone! I too am glad I found this site. Simply amazing.
I will check the threads and also go to the local bike shops to see if they carry the Joe Rocket one mentioned. I would love to be in San Diego with the nice weather and actual tracks you can go ride/learn on. Alas, I am in small town USA without tracks and our four seasons. You all rock and I'm glad to be able to communicate with fellow Ninja enthusiasts. |
