New to the 250!

Jlhines1982 · August 2nd, 2012, 08:56 PM

Hello! Jeremy from Lancaster, CA. Just purchased a 2011 Ninja 250R SE after taking 8 years off from riding. Previously had a late 70's Honda CB550. Love this thing so far, fun bike and looks great for a smaller bike!

Primarily use this for commuting, the 60+ mpg was a real plus. That and the price, picked this one up for 3800 with 2800 miles. Ran across this thread and figured I would join up.

Look forward to future discussions. Thanks!

Jeremy

Thanks! I swore I wouldn't modify the bike, but seeing as the main black stickers were taken off by the previous owner I gave in. I never liked the "dirty" stickers on the tail and sides, made it look less clean. So I removed them! Looks better IMO.

Also removed the reflector under the license plate.

That's a sweet piece of machinery. Nice acquisition. And I do love the sans stickers look.
