Thanks :D The anticipation is starting to kill me. Few more days.

Congtats! Ya I didn't wan't a used one as my first bike and at least when I go to sell it in a year or two I should get a good price. CBR was okay, FI was a great perk but I didn't think it was as sporty looking as the Ninja. The red is nice but I have always thought that if I got a bike it...

Thanks :) Nice, I wasn't a fan of the the stripes on this years SE. Now if they would have reversed that colour scheme, like yellow bike with black and grey striping I would have been all over that (one of my favourite looking bike is the 2003-2005 Yellow Honda CBR600 F4i with the black...

I agree with riding the slow bike fast mentality for sure, one of the key thoughts of why I went 250 instead of the 600 Thanks and that is exactly my plan. Thanks, made my day :D

Thanks! Ya I have been lurking for a while here and have done lots of reading. Likely one of the reason I went with the 250 instead of a 600 as my first bike. This week will be fine but by next Wednesday sleeping may become an issue. Thanks. I think this bike will last me at least 2...

Well with my M1 and M1 exit completed I made the leap of faith and bought a 2012 Candy Lime Green Ninja 250r. I can't go to the MTO to upgrade to my M2 for another 30 days but my insurance is fine with that because I did complete the safety course and passed my M1 Exit test. Had a hard time...

As most can tell by my post count I am new around here and I am also new to riding, just going for my m1 course this weekend. I have done lots of reading of reviews and opinions on gear since I decided to get into riding. Gear for me was hard to locate and even harder to find the style, size...

Thanks Jeff. Thanks for the correction on the F4i vs RR too, i have just read that the F4i's are not as "twitchy" on the throttle as the RRs so they are a little less forgiving..... a little. :) I have my course on the long weekend and I will see how I feel after that to be honest though the...

Thanks all! Hmmmm perhaps I should get the 600 LOL.

I too am looking at a 2012 Ninja 250. My plan is to keep it for a year or two at most. While I can't answer for the OP my reason for buying a new 250 is that I don't have to worry about "what is wrong with the used one". I am a noob to motorcycles and I really don't have any friends that ride...

Hi All, More closer the the Tri-City/Guelph area but close enough to the GTA IMO. Just got my M1 last week and will be taking my course to get my M2 in a couple of weeks. This will be my first time on a motorcycle and I am looking forward to it. Current Gear - ScorpionEXO 500 Oil Helmet...

Guelph area. Which shop did you go to?

I voted for the Ninja. I am in the same boat, looking at both the CBR and the Ninja 250. They are very close on paper depending on what you are looking for. At this point I am looking to get a Ninja, the CBR has a few things over the Ninja but I am not a huge fan of the overall look and...
