FS: 2008 Ninja 250R - Colorado

drunkn ghost · November 30th, 2010, 01:40 PM

I have a friend selling me a bike I have always wanted so I have to make room in my garage. As much as I love it my Ninja is first on my list to go. My friend selling me his bike said I could store it in his garage if I don't have room so I am not in a hurry to sell and don't really expect it to go anywhere until spring.

I am the second owner but I purchased it with 30 miles on it. It currently has about 1,200 on it. Mileage may go up if the weather is nice. I put about 50 miles a week on it commuting to work. I originally bought it just to use as a work commuter but I have being riding my plated CRF250 since the weather has started to get worse here.

I had the 600 mile checkup done at Sun Honda/Kawasaki (they work on all my bikes) in Thorton CO and I have receipts for everything. It is completely stock except for a full Yoshimura TRC carbon fiber exhaust and rejetting that I had done after the initial break in. I could not believe how much smoother then stock it ran after the rejetting. I also installed a quick connect battery tender cable.

I will post some pics once I find my camera but it is red and there isn't a scratch on it so you probably have a pretty good idea of what it looks like. I have been riding for over 20 years so I know how to take care of my bikes. You can even contact the Sun Honda/Kawasaki service department (Scott is the service writer I deal with) and they will vouch for me that all my bikes are in excellent condition and I have never missed a scheduled maintenance on any of them.

I am asking $3,100 for it. I have at least $5,000 into it so I think that is a reasonable price. I will also include the full stock exhaust system and the factory service manual with the bike. I have a truck I could transport it in so I would be willing to deliver it for a fee.

I am more concerned with it going to a good home then I am with selling it so if you send me a message saying "i haz monies and wntz yor bike brotato" I will probably not even reply. You would be surprised how many replies I have gotten like that from craigslist.

I still haven't found my camera. Anyone want some crappy cell phone pics of it?

No

What did you spend 5k on? or 3-4k +1k in mods?

Between the purchase price, tax, mods and maintenance/services it's about 5k. I told myself I wouldn't buy any aftermarket parts for this one but I couldn't have my 70cc scooter sounding meaner then one of my bikes.

I drew a picture of it but didn't have anything to color it red so you might have to use some imagination. My butt is not really that big but I can't draw people as good as I can motorcycles.

scotty · December 13th, 2010, 06:53 PM

Haha, that picture makes me want to buy it now!!!!! Lol

Bump for you sir!

You might want to get the carbs adjusted before you sell it, looks like flames shootin out there

drunkn ghost · December 28th, 2010, 03:28 AM

Yeah that drawing was before the rejetting now there are rainbows coming out of the exhaust. I will also include one free drawing of the new owner on the bike if you don't try to haggle me on the price. If you do try to haggle me I probably won't go any lower and then I will draw you with a big butt just for trying.

Bike is posted on Denver craigslist for $3,000. That is as low as it's going if anyone is interested. If it doesn't sell by May my little brother is getting a pretty sweet birthday present.

Looks like your brother will have a happy birthday...

Just because you are too poor to buy it doesn't mean everyone else is.

Some people say that cucumbers taste better pickled.

drunkn ghost · February 5th, 2011, 12:08 PM

Sold for $3000 to the first person that looked at.
