King, I can afford to keep the baby ninja dispite what people say about the 2fiddy. I mean its cheap to insure, I can ride the living daylights out of it like a mad man and get
200+ miles per fill up, and its fun as heck to ride. And thats what its all about, right? Having fun (dont give a shit if my bike doesnt have that 60000RRRR look)!!!
Mate I have no plans on selling this thing anytime too soon. It's just too much fun. Aussie AND MERICANS have the same mentality too, more cc's = quicker bike.
I'll proudly say that my chicken strips are much much thinner than a lot of other riders.
I have no regrets about this little thing. I'm a much more accomplished rider for it because it's taught me to rely on cornering speed rather than just tip-toe in and power on out. I will move to a bigger bike for the road but this thing is going to hit the race track and maybe even compete if I can find a series.
Dont mean to modify your post, but this sums it up.
*short summary about a guy (and his friends)that i rode with last season....*
I rode with a guy who lives in my apartment complex (with his friends) who started on 600+cc bikes and theyre scared to go into
corners (5+mph too fast?). I'm not saying I'm Stoner or anything, but I'm on a 250, and these guys are on supersports, and I'm going into corners fsater than these guys., but yet
they like to talk shit about how the 250 isnt a good starter bike? Go figure? But these guys are the STunAR type guys.....
