Hi from Hampton Roads, VA

professorman · September 11th, 2014, 08:05 AM

Hey all! I have been riding for 9 years now. I ride a 03 GSXR 1000. I ride on the street and try to stay around the speed limit as much as my wrist will allow me

I picked up a 08 Ninja 250R for the wife to learn on.

For the past few weeks, I have been riding a 05 GSXR 600, and its been a blast to ride compared to the 1000. I am now looking forward to improving my riding techniques and play around with the Ninja 250. Who knows, I might be tempted to do some track time with it too.

I am hoping to pick up a cruiser sometime in the future so I can enjoy a different style of riding, and add something else to the stable.

Once you start riding your "wife's" 250 you won't need any other bike. The 250 does it all. Plus it's fastest in the corners.
