Adrenalin Junkie in Phoenix Az

Hello everyone!!
Dec. 3rd 2017, I bought my Blue Demon. (BFF named it).
My profile pic is the Craigslist pic that I replied to and bought......... for $450.00!! Yes the decimal is in the right place. The add stated, it had 40000 miles, won't idle less than 3000rpm, have to use starting fluid to start,clean title, $699. This is my ultimate color ninja, I almost wasn't interested because it was a 250cc. ( I 've wanted a zx10 since 86) now a little more interested in a zx12, just haven't found one for $699 yet.
I called on it and the previous owner said he sold to a guy who was going to come pick it up in 2 days on payday but if it falls through I'm next, I told him I got the cash right now and will come get it that evening . No response,.6 days later out of the blue he texted me , said the guy never showed up so if I want it he'll take 599. I picked it up that evening for 450 cause we drove 56 miles to get it.
It has a lot of problems but after 300 bucks in tires , brakes , plugs , vac hoses, screw set and frt and rear blinkers I've got a golden goose, with fuel delivery problems.

Good to be a member of this site and have gotten very valuable info as a guest.
Thank you all.

Hi Lawrence, welcome, and it's good to meet you. That's a great deal, for sure.

Adrenaline is fun... on the track. After starting my motorcycle riding in 1978 on a 1972 Kawasaki H2, and riding it and others for 40 years, I believe that bikes like the ZX10R really belong on a track, not public roads. How much have you ridden before getting the 250?

Hi Lawrence and welcome!

Fellow junkie here. Been riding for 35-yrs, raced Porsches in SCCA, jumped out of perfectly good planes regularly, rock rapelling, etc. I suggest taking it easy on the road and get serious adrenaline rushes at track.
