sold the 250 and got zx6r

TXninjaGirl · June 2nd, 2011, 09:14 AM

SO I decided to sell the 250 and get its big brother into my garage! I bought a 2011 zx6r right off the salesroom floor.... and so far.... I LOVE IT!!!

KGar · June 2nd, 2011, 09:21 AM

Very nice machine. Gotta love the power increase too!

Live2ride · June 2nd, 2011, 09:22 AM

That's a sweet looking bike! I haven't seen the blue color scheme yet, I really like it! How do they compare in the twisties / feel of the bike?

TXninjaGirl · June 2nd, 2011, 10:09 AM

thanks guys!... I love the color scheme too but i cant wait to get those graphics off, im not a big fan on those... well ive only had it a day.. so not much twisties, lol.. beside i live in the heart of DFW it takes at least an hour in any direction to get close to "twisties" lol, but the power increase is great, I feel much more stable on it, and turns are easier too.. I did have it lowered though, because i'm pretty short and when i first got on I was almost not able to touch ground, lol, but now that its lowered im much more comfortable, I'm not gonna be going crazy on it yet, lol, i still have the break-in period, and it takes a little getting used to, coming from a 250 to a 600c bike, especially the way you sit on it, so different from a 250.. anyways..I love it all the same!!

Hitman · June 2nd, 2011, 10:23 AM

How much is it lowered? Did you lower the front as well?

bonbon76 · June 2nd, 2011, 10:27 AM

Congrats!!! Great looking bike and car

Im a blue girl all the way too

Best of luck with the new toy...

TXninjaGirl · June 2nd, 2011, 10:39 AM

All they did was add some lowering links to her... i believe it lowered it about 2 inches.. i can almost flat foot when i come to a stop.... i just wasnt comfortable not havin it lowered because oming to a stop, i would be leaning to put my foot down, and ushing up to take off... i love the way it rides and looks now.

No S***. If they would put something together during the weekend I might even consider driving over from here to tag along. 10AM on a Wednesday morning? geez.

MikeCG23 · June 2nd, 2011, 10:32 PM

LMAO well due to our jobs weekdays just work out easier. But we MIGHT be doing a ride next Saturday if i can slip outta the house for a few hours. TXninjagirl you let us know when your free and we can make something happen to get a ride in.

2fiddy · June 3rd, 2011, 08:35 AM

If you don't mind me asking, what did they give you for your trade?

TXninjaGirl · June 3rd, 2011, 08:44 AM

let me look at my schedule for next week and ill see when i can do anything, i work random days and hours so its kinda tough for me ...... They gave me $3200 for it, i thought that was a pretty good deal considering i probably wouldnt be able to sell it for much more than that, plus they threw in the lowering link and labor for free, it was a deal i didnt want to pass up

lol

blink · June 3rd, 2011, 09:05 AM

Awesome bike! I was wanting to upgrade at the end of the season to a 2006 636 plasma blue zx6r! Just need to save up =[

Beatiful bike! Stay safe =]

sounds good just let us know. I am out of town Wed and Thursday of next week but any other days I am good.

MrBrownTX · June 3rd, 2011, 11:24 AM

Looks awesome and I would say that trade in deal was very good.

tac12345 · June 3rd, 2011, 08:36 PM

Congratz !

I need to save to get this bike ... hehe

rusninja · June 8th, 2011, 12:44 AM

my guess is its a v6 x] but i may be wrong :]

PsychoNinja · June 8th, 2011, 07:53 AM

Nice ZX6R!

I'm debating on either the Ninja 650R or ZX6R when I get my 250 paid off. I've sat on both and I am comfortable on both of them, just gotta decide what one to go with when I am ready.

How do you like buying a new bike? As everyone I talk to says to buy new, just something about a bike being brand new and knowing that it wasnt abused etc.

I'm toying with the idea of going to a dealer at the end of the season and seeing what kind of deal I can get trading in my 250 on a 2011 ninja650.

Sick trade in value. However, I suspect they probably juiced the OTD on the ZX-6R. Would you be willing to share how much you paid for the ZX-6R?

i thought cause of the bumper but the rims look the brembo package from the gt

the v6 is a good car it has alot of power

TXninjaGirl · June 21st, 2011, 10:15 AM

actually yes it is a 2010 mustang v6... i bought it because at the time i was looking for a 2007+ used mustang GT but when i saw this on the lot i fell in love with it and had to have it!. The color is awesome and unique, and gets great gas milage compared to gt models. PLUS there are so many things that you can to do a base v6 model car. So far I havent touched the engine, but have spent around 7k on the interior and exterior to make it my own. Eventually i do want to put in a super charger, but for now, my car is my own and i wouldnt trade it for the world.

peachdiddy · June 21st, 2011, 10:20 AM

Beautiful bike! And a great choice, I might add.

rockNroll · June 22nd, 2011, 10:28 AM

Snake · June 22nd, 2011, 02:02 PM

Great looking bike! I like the fact that you stuck with Team Blue.

rusninja · June 22nd, 2011, 05:17 PM

the only thing i dont like about supercharging the v6 is you cant get a root sc :{

jamesio · June 25th, 2011, 05:06 PM

Wow, that is awesome. I want the zx6 to be my next bike as well.

greatwhiteninja · June 26th, 2011, 08:31 PM

the new v6 stangs are like 305hp..not bad for a v6.. would probably beat most stock gt's up to early 2000's loL! nice bike btw!
