Hello from Tubesock
Hey guys I'm new to riding and just got a new 2009 Ninja 250r, the green special edition. I was born in Baltimore but now I live in Chattanooga. I'm currently in the U.S. Army and going to college. When I graduate going to be an officer, school sux though. And I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for a fender eliminator kit for my bike.

Yea I'm not so good with power tools but I'm pretty sure I can just cut the ridiculously big section off.

WELCOME tubesock, yeah there's some pretty sweet DIY fender elim jobs out there, if I woulda known about them I prolly woulda saved the hun and change i spent on the competition werks fender elim kit. But I think either the targa(which is a no cut jobby apparently) or the competition werks are the sharpest of the kits.
