What's up everyone! My name is Brian and I've been lurking here for a bit and just registered recently. I currently own a 2006 CBR1000 trackbike but have been looking for something less expensive to run and race with. I raced a Ninja 250 on one of Racebikerentals bikes last Sept but crashed out on the last lap. Sorry Richard!

Regardless I had a blast and have been looking at Ninja 250's (and SV650's) to go race with. I may be picking up a 08 Ninja 250 this Sat and will be looking to this forum for answers to any questions I may have that I cant answer with a search. Hope to see you guys at the track soon!

Hello and welcome.

hanibal · March 18th, 2010, 10:24 AM

Thanks for the warm welcome. If I end up picking this bike up Sat, I'll post some pics.

hanibal · March 19th, 2010, 01:56 PM

In the meantime here's a couple of before and after pics of me on the Racebikerentals bike....

hanibal · March 19th, 2010, 01:59 PM

After....

BlueRaven · March 19th, 2010, 02:07 PM

Ouch...did you get hurt?

hanibal · March 19th, 2010, 02:15 PM

I hurt my foot but it wasnt broken, just sore. I still had a blast though.

BlueRaven · March 19th, 2010, 02:54 PM

That`s good to hear.

I always wondered why Richard had so many parts for sale. Now I know.

hanibal · March 19th, 2010, 03:04 PM

Actually Richard sells the stock parts from road bikes when he converts them into racebikes. He's also a vendor so he has all the aftermarket stuff too. Once I pick one up I'll be hitting him up for parts.
