Just me 'n the pygmy pony

Blue Monster · May 4th, 2014, 02:10 PM

Greetings and warnings: I am a known: trouble maker, raconteur, mixologist, sommelier, iaidoka, crack shot and world traveler (well, where they still let me in).

A beaten up old ( err, well seasoned) rider, I drove one of these little fellas last year and have been on the hunt since. I found one I would describe the same way I described myself. And as such, already I feel a strong kinship with this little scoot.

I think this is bike number 19 and the smallest street bike I have owned (I am going backwards... it appears... could be senility?) but it's a real grin inducer.

Cosmetics aside, it spins like a little a Swiss watch, J'adore!

Bike number 19 would be a collector's item. They made so many that if you have one of the first ever produced you have a treasure there.

welcome, it must something in the water, mine's the smallest I've had also, first one (in 73) was a 350 two stroke triple and while the ninja isn't as powerful it's every bit as much fun and appears to be a lot easier to live with.

That's the impression I got too. By 1994, there were definitely more than 19 ninjettes in the world

Idk half of what you said... But it's cool! Welcome! You should fit in well

Blue Monster · May 4th, 2014, 10:25 PM

Thanks all!

Yes, it's the nineteenth bike I have owned in my 50(ish) odd years. First street bike was a 750 combat....

Propane tank... oh you mean my old RDS-37, keeps the neighbors at bay better than my 1873.
