Spotted a White beat up pregen going 85 MPH in the carpool lane on the 5 northbound heading by Mission Viejo California . The guy was wearing a black helmet and yellow rain gear that was flapping around.

Very nice seeing a pregen at speed.

Saw a yellow pre-gen on Treat Blvd in Walnut Creek today. Turned onto Oak (or is it Jones?) Rd. I was in front of the Harley rider a lane over.

Parked my bike in one of my school's parking structures, came back to see it sandwiched between two newgen 250s. 250s are not exactly uncommon for a campus in a big city, but it was nice nonetheless.

Spotted a green 250R new-gen with a grab rail today, filtering near the Quy roundabout.

Are they on here? Cheers, Pete

Black 08-12 heading north on Pacific Coast Highway in Hermosa Beach. Stopped next to him at the intersection of PCH and Pier Ave. Maybe 20 minutes ago, give or take, so 16:20ish? He was wearing and Alpinestars jacket, jeans, and black tennis shoes. Light changed before I could roll down the window and ask if he's on ninjette.

Was looking for this thread in the pictures category where it should be.... thought it had been deleted or something. I got a picture of a red 250r on Mass Ave a few minutes ago. It was so cold and I didn't know what to do to help it.

I saw @rojoracing53( Jason) heading to Brentwood on Vasco RD just north of the 580 freeway. He saw me at the stoplight and waved. Too bad he wasn't transporting his MTB with his new rack.

I just rode it home 25 miles with 10-15mph winds and 30mph gusts and it worked wonderfully. I had my dad follow me in his truck to give me the play by play over the Blutooth. Aside from him giving my a ton of **** about just buying a cheap ass economy car, he said it all looked good, ridiculous but solid. I got it up to 85mph with no sign of issues and as long as there is not much wind you can't even tell its on the back.

Stability doesn't feel as bad as earlier but it's still want to wobble coming to a complete stop and cruising the neighborhood but I can deal with that. I'll take it on a easy canyon ride to see how well in corners but I suspect as long as I'm over 20mph I probably won't even feel it. Lane splitting past trucks feels a bit weird because the handle bars are only an inch more narrow then my mirrors but I can see them behind me and any evasive swerving will make the bike up top tip a lot side to side. I guess limited splitting is in order but I don't plan on doing much anyways.

Mine is homemade and it was made to specifically fit my ninja and that Mtb you see on there. I could easily make it more universal for my other mt or road bikes but I doubt I'll ever need to carry those anywhere on the ninja. I got my original rough idea from http://2x2cycles.com

All of the little ninjas are out enjoying this beautiful Georgia weather today! Spotted a green/black new gen heading up Akers Mill crossing Cobb Pkwy, then parked next to a black new gem at Uncle Maddios in Smyrna. Nice bike whoever you are

Not a ninjette but saw a Green and black ZX-6 at the gas station on my way to work. Complimented his bike. He called mine the "little sister version" with a laugh. Favorite line from this guy *sigh* "I miss my 250"
