New from MN

I just picked up a used (barely... 700 miles on it) 2008 Ninja and found out about this place. I'm looking forward to logging many fun miles on the ninja. I got initiated by changing the oil today (super easy! 17mm... done.) and cleaning and waxing the bike.

I've been riding for about 10 years on and off and was attracted to the new body style of the ninja, the gas mileage, and tank range. I also have a honda ruckus that I ride around the city that gets 100mpg. I'm fully making use of all of the nice days this summer to ride!

Congrats on your new used bike. Black is the sexiest color.

Yep, I feel lucky to have found the color I wanted used so lightly. I was surprised at the number of the new models on craigslist in my area. I guess I picked the right time to get one without having to wait.

Ordered a seat cowl today since my fiance is not interested in sitting on the back of a sportbike. Can't wait for it to get here.
