Hola!!!

Hola Amigos!!! Apologies for the delayed introduction... My name is Hans (hansveer chandhok if you really must know, but "hans" is short and sweet :P), I'm 25 years old and I've always been in love with bikes... The issue was that my family is anti-biking (despite my father and both my uncles having been bikers in their hay days). Now I've finally plucked up the courage and am taking the plunge into the world of biking with a Ninja 250r... It helps that my birthday is coming up soon and also the bike is only 250cc... Wish me luck...

Welcome! Take the course and wear the gear and it's not "only" a 250. It's a wonderful ball of fun. As long as they know you're safe, they'll come around.

Lots of people with bigger bikes still love their 250. If you want to cruise around the city doing nothing, buy a big ol hog. If you want active riding and the ability to use the whole throttle, a 250 is a perfect bike.

Pics when you get your baby.

I just found a fantastic deal on the net where I'm getting a one year old bike with about 6800miles on it... A two brother's slip on exhaust and a Jardine fender eliminator kit... All that and about 24% off the cost of a brand new bike... Good deal? Bad deal? Just spoke to the guy, he seems genuine enough and is selling it to upgrade to a ducati monster 795...

Welcome Hans!
Buyer beware so check the bike out carefully, hopefully with the help of another experienced biker. I use the Kelley Bluebook website ( www.kbb.com )as a guide to used motorcycle and car pricing. Then if I like the bike or car , I try to get it for less. Good luck

Hey, thanks for the heads up... My cousin is a car dealer, so he knows all the ins and outs of buying a used automobile... I'm going to ask him to check it out... Cheers!!!

So... I finally bit the bullet and bought myself a ninjette!!! It isn't the spanking new one I had imagined I would buy, but being 10 months old with less than 1,800 miles on the odo.. with 25% off the sticker price... It was a good enough deal... I had my cousin (a used car dealer) check out the bike at the local garage and do the paperwork... So all went smoothly in that department... Bike's ebony black, as there are only two colors available in India, black and green, and I'm not really a fan of the green... Will post pics asap...
