Hello from Columbia, MO!

Hello everyone! Ive been lurking for a little bit but I figured Id go ahead and introduce myself.

My name is Adam and I am racing with rc-rick, DCMoney, and the other MCRA guys in the 250 class this year. Ive run the first two events on a CBR250R, but I quickly found out that its lack of power, coupled with my lack of skills, was not a good recipe for success.

Currently, Im still racing the CBR but Ive got a 2012 Ninja 250R with 4500 miles on it that I picked up for $2000 that will be getting some race mods soon.

Anyway, its good to be here and Ive already learned a lot about these bikes from the info posted here.. so thanks everyone for contributing!

They each have their pros and cons. I actually like riding the CBR better as it has a better frame and feels more stable with cornering.

The Ninja definitely has the CBR beat on power, though. I get left in the straights by riders on Ninjas when Im on track with the CBR unless I can get close enough to pull a draft, which only helps a bit.

I feel like I will like the Ninja a lot more after getting the GSXR shock installed and getting better internals for the forks.
