Burlington, Ontario 2010 ninja

aldenso · March 8th, 2011, 11:08 AM

Hey guys and gals,

I've been trolling a few ninja forums and I found myself coming back to this one the most, so I decided to register for it.

So I'm 22, 6'3 and 195lbs. I've been riding motocross my whole life, and decided to make a 2010 250r my first street bike. From what I've read it'll be plenty of fun and a perfect first bike, and maybe my only bike. I find it wicked that most of you get new bikes and either just sell them and go back to the 250r, or just keep it and ride it more than the new bike.

I also decided on it because of insurance and gas costs.

Furthermore, I decided I'm going to use the motoman break in method.

So the I get the bike April 1st. I'm getting a brand new red 2010 250r from Burlington Cycle and I'm paying 5299 for it. I figured this was a pretty awesome deal. There is something about me and buying anything used that ends up extremely poorly...I haven't successfully bought ANYTHING used that lasted me a reasonable amount of time, so I decided now was the time to splurge on something new, because I'm planning to keep this bike for a good while.

I'm pretty sure Burlington Cycle still has a few 2010s left in blue and red, if anyone else is interested in getting a brand new ninja at a cheaper price. They also have a bunch of 2011's in stock (including the SEs)

I look forward to posting with you guys and maybe riding with some of you!
