Talking Hola from Florida. x-)

Hey everyone! The names ManiacalNinja and I'm brand new to the forum. I was googling around (and right now am in shock that googling is accepted by my spell check) and have found this awesome site. I dont have a motorcycle, yet, but hopefully within the next 4 or 5 months. I'm already buying up gear so I can atleast go take my MSF course (I think thats what its called). Any who, hopefully I'll be owning a brand new Ninja 250r. I cant decide on the black or pearl white yet. I'm starting at the 250 because I doubt I'll ever need more power, especially as a beginner. Perhaps in the future when I've mastered the 250. Also hopefully I'll be starting a new Vlog on youtube for other beginners who want another beginners perspective from the very start. Since I'm buying all my gear piece by piece (due to the lack of mula) I'll be starting it by telling a little about gear and the MSF course. But thats a whole different thing. Well enough rambling, hope to make friends on here soon. Cheers!
-Maniacal.

Welcome, great choice and attitude toward biking in general.

Seems you are more mature then alot of new young riders out there. What part of FL are you in anyway?

I personally like the white ninjette myself after seeing it up close.

Thanks for the welcoming. @sombo, Thanks, and I'm in the orlando region. I like the white as well but the more I think about it the more I question how much work I'll have to put into cleaning it. Dirt would show up on the black, but not as much lol.
@Boost, Florida's good and all but for the past two days it's been nothing but tornado warnings and hail every where. I think I heard on the news some places had hurricane strength wind. Pretty crazy stuff.

It is a nice bike. The 2011 is a tad bit different as in its not solid white. Its like that with the red wheel stripes but the design on the side makes it questionable. it looks nice the designs just, idk. Lol. I was fixed on black till the white/red/blackish design came out. Then I was devastated with decision making lol

welcome to another floridian! get to the msf early as they normally have ninja 250 as some of the bikes used. there's a buttload of great deals on used ones as well and it's often recommended to beginners to go used. for example, i dropped my bike the first time i got home with it going up a bump into the shed. plenty of feedback and info. ongear and all right on site if you need ANYthing. again welcome and happy trails.

I had seen that but I'm going to take it at a harely davidson and I think all they have are 500cc old harleys. N I'm considering used just figure they're all around the same price it seems. Where abouts of Fl are you?

Cheers.
