What Color is Your 250R?

kkim · June 22nd, 2009, 09:56 PM

Okay simple question... maybe this one won't cause as much discord around here.

Trying to find out the distribution of colors of 250s on the board. I know everyone can't have green, so Kawi did make other colors.

So, what color is your Ninja 250?

Bsmith · June 22nd, 2009, 09:59 PM

What no multiple choice? Technically I own two.

P1NDLESK1N · June 22nd, 2009, 09:59 PM

Mostly black, but the hints of green make it a bit faster than others.

And the grey? That's classified.

CANTFUNCTION · June 22nd, 2009, 09:59 PM

Red

Alex · June 22nd, 2009, 10:24 PM

Redid the poll to allow multiple choice; if you've already voted you unfortunately need to vote again.

kkim · June 22nd, 2009, 10:30 PM

Boy, that was a sneaky move to prevent the greens from winning.

thanks for making the change to the poll as I requested. Okay, Bsmith... vote again.

NaughtyusMaximus · June 22nd, 2009, 10:41 PM

Black plus some gray/brown dirt...

I already did. My wife hated the green so I let her get the Black one. Besides I can't have her out running me now can I.

Verus Cidere · June 22nd, 2009, 11:33 PM

I'm the only one of the best BLUE bikes that has appeared! Where my peeps at?

Look ^^^^^^^^ all my blue peeps!

(Hey kim! Note the fact that my peep that is puking pukes green!

)

SteveL · June 22nd, 2009, 11:42 PM

A Kawasaki has to be GREEN you would not have a Ferrari any other colour than RED would you.

You know multiple choice is now available right?

gitoy · June 23rd, 2009, 12:10 AM

hurray for multiple choice...

...i am voting blue and green...twice as fast, yeah

kkim · June 23rd, 2009, 12:12 AM

did you need to speed up a blue bike or slow down a green one?

Snake · June 23rd, 2009, 12:20 AM

My bike is Blue. The sexiest color there is!!!!

gitoy · June 23rd, 2009, 12:20 AM

i had a green donor bike that came in handy when i bought a blue that was rear ended...can i vote again for my old bike?....

BlueTyke · June 23rd, 2009, 06:08 AM

Blue blue blue!! Whoot!

Snake · June 23rd, 2009, 06:25 AM

It looks like Blue and Green are neck & neck. Go Blue.

Lars · June 23rd, 2009, 06:25 AM

Red. My first choice was Black, but I couldn't find one. At the dealership I bought my bike, I had a choice between red and the SE green. I just couldn't bring myself to buy the green, so I ended up with Red

.

BlueRaven · June 23rd, 2009, 07:07 AM

A true ninja always wears BLACK making them undetectable to their prey

OldGuy · June 23rd, 2009, 07:12 AM

Kelly with a SE you left me no choice but to vote Green, Black, Other.

kazam58 · June 23rd, 2009, 07:45 AM

Blue. I actually didn't have a choice because when i put down my deposit, it was the last 250R the dealing was getting in 2008 and it was two months before the bike even arrived. Even the dealer didn't know what color it was going to be.
However, that being said, blue was my first choice, it's a beautiful color on the 08's. I'd like to be able to add some white into it, and powdercoat the wheels white as well. But that's damn expensive...

noche_caliente · June 23rd, 2009, 08:46 AM

Black, with blue accents....

Kolya1981 · June 23rd, 2009, 09:08 AM

Green...the other colors were just too slow! :P

BlueRaven · June 23rd, 2009, 10:00 AM

I tought i'd be nice to the green bikes out there. We are soo fast they never see us pass them. It makes them think their the fastest

Obsidian · June 23rd, 2009, 11:01 AM

What? No silver?

Tis teh gheyness!!!

votes for *other*

2WheelGuy · June 23rd, 2009, 11:53 AM

What no YELLOW!?! Yellow is the fastest color. BTW the 250 Ninja colors I currently have are:

Yellow
Yellow (Got 2 yellow bikes)
Black
Red
Blue

g21-30 · June 23rd, 2009, 12:39 PM

Kelly spent the last 6 months recruiting owners of Green bikes, so he could repeat this poll. Last time BLACK won hands down!

Snake · June 23rd, 2009, 01:21 PM

It looks perty close now between green, blue and black.

Ohh Snap · June 23rd, 2009, 01:27 PM

green for now.

kkim · July 14th, 2009, 06:21 PM

emt250 · July 14th, 2009, 06:31 PM

Blue! But as it is my first bike ever, I would have jumped at almost any color bike.

istreefitty · July 14th, 2009, 06:32 PM

Ok so why is the "black" bar pink??? I suspect foul play ; )

On this subject how much is a full body color change?? Just wondering (not for me of course)

because if the bar were left black, it would be so slow, like the black bikes, that the line would not coincide with the number.

just be thankful the green line doesn't show more than the corresponding number.

istreefitty · July 14th, 2009, 07:35 PM

I could never own a green one because the buyers remorse has to kill you!!! That and I heard the hardest part about owning he green one is telling your parents you are gay!!!!!
Not for me.

In the poll, notice that "black" is in italics, which implies that the author already knows that it is Swift, Silent, and Deadly!

lol they're in italics because that's what you voted for! And the black bikes are certainly silent and deadly... because they're so slow they become a traffic hazard.
