New 2012 at the dealer are going for $3,999 plus tax OTD. People want too much for used 250s IMO but hopefully if I sell mine someone will pay more than they should. LOL. I'd say $2,500 for that 2010.
The new 300 hundreds are nice but they have driven down the price of old 250s. I have a 2012 Ninja 250R and once I get it out of storage it will be up for sale if I don't trade it in first on a ZX6R. But new 2012 250s are going for cheap, $3,999 plus tax. I would love to get the 4000 -...
You can still get new 2012 Ninja 250s or Honda 250 pretty cheap, especially right now. I was talking to a sales guy last week (just about a random thought of trading my bike in for a 2012 ZX6r) and told me that he was selling new 2012 Ninja 250s for $3,999 plus tax OTD. Sucks for people like...
I went last year which was my first season with jeans and knee,shin and hip,tailbone armour. Only changes this year will be Kevlar Draggin' Jeans and upgrading the back protector in my Overlord Prime leather to the Icon Stryker CE Back Protector.
If I upgrade to a 600cc I may get the Icon...
Do you still have the plate light harness from your original fender? All I did was cut that wire off, spliced to to a set of LED plate light bolts and simply plugged the connection back to the original location (under the passenger seat). Took maybe 20 mins. Going to redo it in the spring to...
I got TCX S-Sportour Boots.
Not sure about others but I bring different clothes for riding and then some for the office. I always wear full gear and in the summer heat you are gonna sweat and smell. This past season I did where leg armour (and hip and *** armour) under my regular jeans...
I almost went with SMX-1's but ended up going with the TCX ones. They are very similar boots. I was at Royal Distributing and spent about 30 mins or so in each one walking around getting the feel of which one fit better. In the end for my feet and and legs the TCXs where the better fit and...
1) Gear selection looks good to start. You are covering a lot of the basic areas that a lot riders don't seem to worry about. The only additions could be shin/knee guards and CE armour shorts of some kind. My gear setup is very close to what you have on your list. I may get a K3 or a Grid...
Congrats!!
http://www.ninjette.org is a great Ninja 250 site if you are not already on there.
As for cold starts, even on cool 10C fall mornings I would have mine warming up at least a minute or two on full choke, then down to half for another minute or so. Would leave it on half for about a...
This is definitely the time of year to buy. I kinda wish I would have waited to put mine away in storage and sold it and bought a 600cc. Have seen a few good deals that I would have jumped on. Oh well, spring is just around the corner.
As for buying new don't forget about the full prices =...
I've ordered most of my gear through Canada's Motorcycle. Shipping and customer service has been great in my experience. I have the Icon Overlord Prime Leather Jacket and love it, Scorpion Exo 500 Oil helmet, Icon Overlord Gauntlets, Knox Shorts and Alpine* shin/knee guards all bought from...
I got my M1 a week after my 40th Bday this year and I don't believe it has anything to do with having a midlife crisis.
Like others I have always wanted a bike but for one reason or another it just never happened until later on in life. I am sure from the outside world I do look like I am...
While I agree with you that our laws protect the criminals more than it should and limit it's citizens in how they can respond. The David Chen case was based on the fact that he acted on video surveillance from an hour prior to the citizen's arrest he committed. At the time the law stated you...
I believe that is correct. Had a guy on my M1 course ask the instructor the same question and he was told that he should be okay to upgrade without having to wait the 60 days a second time around. Others may correct me but in doubt call or contact to the MTO people.
I was planning on going with an 2005 or 06 F4i as my first bike but went with a 2012 Ninja 250 instead. I love the look of the F4i's and may look at upgrading to one next summer if I feel I am ready.
Good choice in gear. I almost when with the panda look too! LOL Ended getting Neon yellow, black and white helmet (Scorp exe500 Oil) which threw the look off. I have the same textile and also have the Overlord Prime Leather. Almost bought those boots too but when I was trying those on vs...
I would stick with the CBR or Ninja 250. I thought about the Hyosung but there was not close by service places so I went with the Ninja. If you are not a fan of the look of the current Ninja just wait for the 2013's to arrive.
