Eh oh-ontario, canada
Hello,
Just wanted to say hi, new rider from Hamilton, Ontario. Used to ride a lil 50 honda as a kid and loved it. Got the itch for a bike couple years ago, but out of respect for my then gf and mother I never got into it. Well me and the ex split some time ago and now that the good weather is upon here in ontario I'm takin the plunge. I did my research and found the 250. I've already taken my msf course which I would recommend to every new rider. Now I'm waiting for my bike to come in, which keeps getting pushed back everytime I call the shop, but it's giving me lots of time to read up and soak in the knowledge. I've already bought a two bros slip on, comp werks fender kit, and the seat cowl(BLACK). Was thinkin of green accents, fluorescent green windscreen, led light kit and some reflective green rimtape. Should look pretty hot. I'm trying not to buy too many parts for it as IT IS my first bike and being a big guy (6'2, 215lb) I'm not sure how long I will be on her. However its DAMN hard . Already got bookmarks for clip-ons, rearset adjusters, jet kit, and possibly a CF hugger. But I'm lookin forward to learning and passing on as much as i can. |

welcome
Welcome to the place, from a guy that just got a blue 250 on a day it snowed.
Such is the life in Labrador. At least we've got a Kawasaki dealer. |

Welcome Kristopher. I can't believe you are still waiting for your bike, Inglis in London has a SE sitting on the floor and several others waiting to be put together in their warehouse when I was their yesterday. Don't know how long your wait is but London is not that far... Enjoy the forum!

weeeeeee
So i just talked to the sales guy and the bike has been shipped from toronto!! Should be there either mid day today or tomorrow morning, said the assembly time is 3.5 hrs so I'm banking on tomorrow for pick up. For those of you who know the area, the shop is in guelph and i'm from the hammer, so i'm gonna take guelph line home me thinky. Or I might take old 6 through guelph and take a break halfway in moriston for its first heat cycle. Should be about 20-25 min for the first stint, and pretty much the same back home. Am just in the process of moving so might b a bit before i can get some pics. But yea, eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek.
