Thanks for sharing the great pictures. Who says the 250 too small for long distance riding.

*giggles* These people that say the Ninja isn't good for long distances or the highway are flippin retarded, seriously. I hear/read about it all the time and all I can do is laugh. When I want to go home on the weekends, Friday night 200 miles from Abilene to Waco, the first 55 miles being on 1-20. Saturday I go riding with my dad, usually another 200 miles because we always have to put gas in the tanks before and after the trip. Sunday morning another ride, although maybe 100 miles this time. Sunday afternoon it's back to Abilene. 200 miles.

All in all, 700 miles at least in a weekend, with freeways. All pleasure riding too. By the time I get home Sunday night I still want to keep riding.

These little bikes are so cool.

I envy you. At my old job it was a 45 mile commute one way and I loved it...(before diesel prices shot through the roof and my truck was killing me - I would have killed to have my bike then). Now my job is only 5 minutes away and that's usually all I get to ride my bike during the week because I work so late.

So once again, I envy you. lol
