Saw a green new gen 250 going across the Bay Bridge (westbound, around 2-2:30) today. Also saw a black one at a car show I was in at Modesto (Fallen Heroes Car Show) yesterday.

I'm usually speeding at night. If it was that date, I would've had my robocop mesh armor on.

EDIT: Never mind, it's too close to the date that I got my bike. I was most likely wearing squidwear -- just a helmet and a polo shirt.
Sounds like I saw you! The rider was squidding it and speeding lol

I saw a green second gen today in front of the Starbucks at I-35 and Slaughter Lane in South Austin. It looked pretty clean, with what may have been an aftermarket windscreen, and an Icon sticker on the left side.

I suspected later that it may have belonged to the guy who made my frappuccino, but I didn't think to ask him at the time.

I see what I think is a Ninja going the opposite direction from me on Wells Branch parkway just east of Heatherwilde every morning, on my way to work. The bike is definitely a Kawasaki sportbike of some sort; it looks like a second-gen 250 with green and white bodywork.

Female rider on a red new-gen around 1:15pm on 16th & Potrero Ave. waiting at the light.

I'm starting to notice a trend in my sightings... ALL female riders!

Gray Pregen pulled over just south of Cesar Chavez exit... I think he may have ran out of gas. He was looking in his gas tank... hope that's all it is! 3:15pm

Red pregen yesterday at the entrance to Black diamond mines/contra Loma just before sunset, they were still out having fun on the trail when I got back in the dark. Normally I would have been on my Ninjette but since I've been taking the mtb I've needed the truck. I need to figure out how to mount the mtb to the rear of the Ninjette so I don't need my truck.

Naw, not back, side! Like a side car and latched in a way that it will lean with you in any corners.

I think I saw one a few days ago on the LIE exiting to take Sagtikos (or h/e its spelled) north. Only thing that made me think it was a ninjette was the thin profile of the rear tire and that impressive posture during the turn (and Im dead positive a scooter wouldn't turn the wayhe did)

Forgot to post it with all the excitement but on the way to get my 300 in North Jersey we took 287N. we saw 2 newgens, both going south. A black one cruising down the road and green on that may have been pulled over by 2 cops, or broke down maybe? He was sitting in the grass. It was between 4 and 5 i think on Monday afternoon that i spotted them.

Monday evening, saw a white 300 on Minnehaha in Mpls near 46th street. I think it was ~6:45pm

Rider was wearing shorts and a rain jacket. Had his right turn signal on the whole time on Minnehaha. I tried to signal but he didn't see me, and turned right just before 36th Ave.

Ah, my bad. The topic was saying "Ninja Sightings" so I forgot for a moment the site is called "Ninjette". Well, on a second thought I do remember seeing yellow(ish) pre-gen ninja this Tuesday on a Shawnee Mission Parkway couple stoplights east of K-7 taking left turn.
