Return to Ninja250
Years ago, I club level raced an 86 Ninja 250. Only recently have I found a newer Ninja to ride as my around town bike.
Man, I can't believe it's taken me this long to return to this fun little rock star. Last futzed with by tiii; March 31st, 2014 at 11:54 PM. |

Welcome back to the wonderful world of Ninja, Tony. How does the '03 Ninja compare to the '86?

The 03 is a bit more responsive (carbs are 2mm smaller iirc) but my 86 was faster up top.
Another factor is that I'm 25lbs fatter than I was in the 90's. Truthfully this F16 is the g/f's (but she doesn't ride unless the weather's PERFECT). So, I keep an eye out for another 86. I should uave never sold mine.
