Just wanted to say hi
I just wanted to say hi. I was an occasional lurker in the past. But today i finally joined. What finally pushed me was that i have wanted a motorcycle ever since i could walk.
The ninja 250 was actually of the motorcycles that pulled me back into the motorcycle scene after drifting away with prices way out of my league. But then i discovered the ninja 300. It seemed perfect for me. Great gas mileage, enough power for what i need, looks good, cheap insurance. Whats not to love. Well i decided i should go to college while i had the chance so the 300 now is out of my budget. So that brings me here again. As a first bike i am looking for a used 250 or a dual sport of some sort. So i want to learn all i can from you guys here to make sure i do it right. My hobbies and passions are: -Cars -Motorcycles -Bicycles -Guns, especially long range precision shooting -Video games -Computer building -Straight razors -Fountain pens -History -Math I am currently a mechanical and civil engineering student. I am also dyslexic, so forgive and spelling errors in the future. As you can see, i had to edit my first post! |

Welcome! I have a thing for fountain pens, too. Pens of all varieties, really, but there's something about a beautiful fountain pen...

I hope i can get one soon. I did see someone actually post a 1999 ninja 250 for sale for 430 dollars some what close to me. It is missing a few parts. But it looks like it is missing everything i was going to take off. That is a great job as well. I was going to job the military as well but then i became diabetic(cue the price is right fail music). I have to ask then, did you get your user name from the AAC honeybadger? |

Welcome,
Used Ninja 250's, especially the pre-gens 1988-2007 are easy and cheap to find and still a great bike with plenty of power. |

Welcome
We have many similar interests. I am also sylsdexic. I have to edit most of my posts not because im dyslexic but because the spell check puts different words in my sentence. I love cars and bikes and bicycles. I have raced them all. . I have had many guns but sold them to race. I now shoot percision airguns in a sport called Field Target I collect watched and pens . My latest is a Caran D'ache. Ball point. A gift from my wife. http://www.penporium.com/CARAN-D-ACH...495-p/2582.htm And I like to watch knife making. But would cut myself if I had a streight razor. Wow they are sharp. I also love history and use math everyday.
