I saw a New Gen Green special edition Maybe '10 or '11, on Kst. NE around 3rd or 4th street in DC at about 7:20pm.

Nice bike BTW.

PHL · March 30th, 2012, 08:01 PM

2011 Lime Green SE on Kelly Drive right around noon. You led everyone on the two lights, the weirdo Can-Am didn't stand a chance keeping up with you.

I should add that, in South Philly today, I saw a guy on a cruiser riding around with helmet, jacket and... Crocs? Then I saw an older woman on a scooter with a helmet. A bike helmet. A BIKE helmet. It was even tilted back on an angle, and not sitting flat on her head.

akima · March 30th, 2012, 11:03 PM

Until yesterday evening I'd never seen another ninjette on the road before. That evening I saw two! One was a standard Kawi green 2008/2009 (had the all metal exhaust) ninjette with what looked like a 5'8" tall rider. We stopped at some traffic lights both facing each other. I flashed my light and he gave me a nod

I actually wondered if it might be @Whiskey. The other was an all blue one with a seat cowl installed. I only saw the tail end of the blue one so there's a chance it wasn't actually a ninjette.

Anyway... it's nice to see people rocking a 250CC bike! It's pretty rare here. People seem to jump from 50/125CC up to 600CC+ bikes without working a 250. It's a crime!!

Was it a nice pair of crocs?

Little_Ghost · March 31st, 2012, 08:11 AM

I keep spotting a female rider on a blue new-gen in my neighborhood, near 196th and Hwy 99 in Edmonds/Lynnwood.

Got it in one

I've never seen a blue 250 in Ireland or UK, the old Er6 came in blue and looks very like a 250.

Yey! Hello Whiskey

The blue one probably was an Er6. I'm always looking out for Ninjettes.

etiainen · March 31st, 2012, 12:17 PM

The new Candy Green was out in my neighbourhood while I was changing my friend's oil last week.

I've spotted a red and blue Ninjette on UGA's campus here in Athens.

robmilchling · April 3rd, 2012, 07:46 AM

'12 Candy Green 250 in Baltimore city. I saw it riding through Mt Vernon, right near the monument. It had an aftermarket exhaust, didn't see which one though. I gave the rider a thumbs up.

miss_syn · April 5th, 2012, 05:21 PM

White se outside of Mullens near PNC Park, red at the intersection of Noblestown and Poplar, possibly blue by DLL convention center, red on market st downtown again.

CZroe · April 5th, 2012, 10:46 PM

Blue newgen inside of @gilmorec61's garage on Mon/Tues.

akima · April 6th, 2012, 12:19 AM

White 2008+ ninjette 2 lanes away from me on a motorway. I gave them a thumbs up (which takes a lot of strength at 80mph).

TBC · April 6th, 2012, 09:45 PM

Yet another sighting of that blue/silver pregen on Forbes Ave. in Oakland.

CZroe · April 10th, 2012, 08:33 PM

Today:
Red newgen heading East on Carrollton Highway (GA-16) past Glover Rd.
Blue newgen heading West on Bullsboro Drive (GA-34) past Newnan Crossing Blvd/Walmart.

The second one was Chris / @gilmorec61

Little_Ghost · April 10th, 2012, 09:42 PM

09 Green/Black/White SE on 164th and Beverly Park Rd. in Lynnwood last week.

akima · April 11th, 2012, 10:25 AM

It's a nice feeling seeing another ninjette on the road! Wish there were more around here.

Falcor · April 11th, 2012, 10:35 AM

I read on the first page that people were interested in a graphic for the forum to slap on their bikes. I'd be more than happy to come up with something, but if anyone has a blown up version of the site logo or even the text on the logo that would probably be the way to go. It would even work on the white bikes since the text has a black outline.

insomniaticnotw · April 11th, 2012, 10:36 AM

'10 Red and '12 Green. Spotted around Maple and Maize rd here in Wichita.

I kinda do a little bit of graphic design on my free time and found the font. Here's a PNG with transparent background.

I think photobucket converts, and reduces the size. The original file is a lot cleaner. I can send it to you, if you'd like.

akima · April 13th, 2012, 12:03 AM

@Robinhood: Nice design.

Really like that.

I do actually like the USA (from what I know about it), but I really don't like your gov: it puts me off even visiting there let alone living there. If your gov adhered to your constitution then it would be nice... but it doesn't.

I've been wanting to take another vacation to California. I just ignore the government. Seems to be working so far.

Let me know if you make them up! I'd put one either side of the rear fairings

I'm gonna put a plug in for Tri (@CThunder-blue) here because he's a great guy and he makes ninjette.org vinyls just like that. I'm rocking them on my chin fairing. They come in all kinds of colors, are reasonably priced, and look great.

sorry about the bad lighting, that's the only picture I have of it at the moment

Well, i just wanted to take the text on our logo and put something underneath it saying "Get in Touch With Other 250's!" or something like that with a matching text if i can find one. As far as actually fabricating them i have no knowledge on how to do that, but i'd be more than happy to share my knowledge when i find inexpensive way to get them made for forum users!

(I'd probably offer any color under the rainbow as well, ez mode in Photoshop

)

Thank you Robin! That is more than big enough for the purposes i intend to use it for.

Kevin2109 · April 13th, 2012, 08:55 AM

Black 250 yesterday, rode with him from the 5 to the 405

Yellow pre-gen last night (around 10 PM) on the Richmond Bridge heading east.

Chuffmonkey · April 18th, 2012, 09:55 AM

Drove along next to a red newgen (I was in my cage) this morning on 90th S in Sandy, just by the I15 on ramp. I suspect it was the same rider I saw a couple of weeks ago taking a canyon ride.

robmilchling · April 18th, 2012, 12:45 PM

Blue newgen on MD rt32 heading westbound yesterday, tuesday 4/17/12, around 4:15-4:30ish. I was heading eastbound and saw it across the median.

akima · April 18th, 2012, 12:48 PM

It's the Hylian crest from the Legend of Zelda game series. It is the classic triforce from all of the games and the design is found on a lot of stuff throughout the game like your shield

I grew up playing these games, so seemed appropriate for an avatar

"Triforce". Second time I heard that term in here. I think someone here has had it tattoo'd on their back. maybe @TnNinjaGirl?

I get it now! I've never played zelda. I had a megadrive as a kid, but we only had 1 game for it.

MarcoPolo · April 18th, 2012, 01:00 PM

Saw a red newgen and the guy walking around after at Lake Lansing then a 2011? SE white black and green one going through East Lansing saddly I was in my cage :/
