Hey Y'all
Hello there from El Paso Texas. I've been the proud owner of a Ninjette 250R-F14 for a little over two months now. She's my first bike but I'm not a stranger to the riding community. I found her on C.L. a while back and I knew I wanted her lol but the asking price was far too steep.(1600) Well, she was sold, used abused then re-sold and abused some more. Eventually she was posted back up on C.L. and this time I wasn't going to let her get away! I called the guy, closed a deal and ran away with what turned out to be a STEAL! ($300) She wasn't running but after literally 5 minutes of tinkering I determined all she really needed was a set of spark plugs, an oil change and a little tune-up. I had her on the road and purring like a kitten in the span of an afternoon. now I join you all to tell our story as it unfolds. As for who "we" are, I'm known in town by the name "Hunter" and my ninjette is known as "Spitfire". Thanks to the neglect of her two previous owners she doesn't look like much but I intend to change that with a little tlc. she runs great though and her first owner had used her very little and taken good care of her. she now has only 7500 original miles or so and she runs wonderfully!

Howdy, Hunter! Congrats on the bike and good luck with that traffic!
I've ridden El Paso on my Ninjette and those surface streets are PACKED! |
