new old guy
Hey everyone,
So last weekend I bought a 07' 250. and to put it simply.. I love it. I've owned 3 bikes in the past. 96 Rebel 250, 02 Ducati Monster 750 and a GS400 which I'm still building. I must admit the first time I rode the ex250 i was a little disappointed, I remember opening the throttle and waiting for it to start moving, being so used to the monster this felt so much slower, I followed my normal commute route and ended up on JFK BLVD east heading to the lincoln Tunnel. Nice little windy road, 25-30 mph speed limit. At those speeds the monster isn't a lot of fun, but the ninja made me smile. This is by far the most fun i've had on 2 wheels. |

I cant believe how friendly everyone is. saxbass I dont own the rebel or the monster anymore. But here are some pics anyway.
Honda Rebel  Monster 750  GS400  The 81' GS400 is being built using 636 front end and ninja 250 rear end. My intention was to finish it in a few months but it just work out. I havent taken pics of the ninja yet. |

Cool looking bikes! The Ninjettes are in a class by themselves even if they aren't rockets! I'm originally from NY - 1.5 hrs north of the city. Welcome to the forum!

Thanks for the warm welcome, anyone from the NY metro area?
I also may ditch the GS400 project entirely. Is anyone interested in the 636 front end? I tried posting to the for sale section but i need to wait for the 30 days to pass. |
