Hey,

I'm about 2 weeks away from delivery of my 2011 Ninja 250r SE and can't wait!

VERY new to the world of bikes so I'm reading through all the threads and have to google a lot of terms but hoping that will decrease with experience.

So nervous about riding my bike home from the dealership since I've had only a few hours riding experience all up including my learners permit day but equally excited about it finally arriving after months of waiting, just in time for Spring

There are specific motorcycle term dictionaries that might be better than general google searches for some terms.

One of them
Another one
