Goodbye EX250

djpharoah · September 5th, 2009, 06:57 PM

Sold my 250 today to another newbie. He just took the MSF and was totally stoked to get such a clean bike.

I don't know what to say or think - but I know I'll miss it

Now to find another bike - hopefully a kawi.

Oh man! Not another one!

Good luck on the search

You thinking of more CCs or just a newer 250R?

Buell XB9R, about $4000 for the 2003 model. The 1125cr would be great (150 horsepower) but still way beyond my pocket

Also in the same range would be an ex-CHP BMW with about 100,000 miles on it (ebay)

I'm looking at a ZX6R from like 2001-2003 or same era F4i.

the 636 looks much better imo... but then again I dont think too many people get the zx6r for its looks.

636 seems to be everywhere for around $3000 to $4500, makes me wonder what's wrong with them. Take a look at the throttle bodies on ebay, must get a lot of crashed 636.

03-04 636 is hot.
would love to own one.

I prefer look over power.

2000-2001 zx6r and 2003-2004 zx6r are two different bikes. The 03/04 models are apparently very very race oriented.

the '00/01 model zx6r is the same as the zzr600 of later years...definitely more comfortable. I sat on one and couldn't believe how comfy it was.

Yeah I know that after I sat on one. I'm looking at the 2000-2002 zx6r/ or 05+ zzr. The hard part is finding the right one.
