Hi all!

I had a ninja 250r about 10 years ago... I got rid of it and I've had the itch for another bike.

A couple of weeks ago, I found a deal and purchased a 1995 ninja 250r with 1200 miles. This bike hasn't even been broken in... I went for a ride a few days after the purchase and the back end just slid out. Then it happened again... and I thought the first time it was just a bit sandy on the road. After closer inspecting on tires that had decent thread... I discovered the tires were manufactured in 1994! I just installed some new Shinkos and they should do the trick. Now my wife can learn to ride safely.

I purchased from the same guy, a 2001 ZX-7R with 23k. I have had to do some electrical work because the lights were converted to LED but not "correctly" all indicators would turn on. All fixed now after some sleuthing around web. New flasher, a diode, and wire soldering (they were literally twisted together with a strip of electrical tape) later, everything is worked as it should.

Happy riding!
