Using my truck as a dd its getting very expensive on gas. With gas prices going up and the weather getting warmer again i decided to find a new toy as a dd. Found this on craigslist and couldnt pass it up, this is my first time riding a street bike so its gona be fun. Now i want to make it match my truck some how. Any ideas?
Its a Kawasaki Ninja 250r

 

Nice bike! I was just talking about the very same thing yesterday with my wife, I'd like to get a bike for the summer and for some reason she is up for it That seems like a nice size for a starter bike if you've never had one before, ya don't wanna wrap yourself around a pole!

i love kawi green, but black it all out, and get v8 magnum decals to put on each radiator shroud. And get a chrome grab bar to match the chrome roll bar thing you have

 

pin strip the truck green

 

Nice suicycle.

 

Sick dude!


Ya know, chop the exhaust and get it tuned by Hemifever... haha! lol

 

That is a great bike for a first. Regardless of what some may think, sportbikes are easier to handle than a cruiser because thay are balanced well. Just a few more body aches here and there.

Just put a simple green "K" in the center of your front window roll on!!

 

There called donorcycles...and that is a pretty sweet bike. What did you pay for it? I've been toying with the idea of getting a bike, Harely though.

 

Keep in mind that the you're something like six times (IIRC) more likely to crash and die in the first six months of owning a bike as you are afterward. I've seen it at least a dozen times: A guy gets a bike, heeds the good advice to take it easy for six months or so (longer if he doesn't ride several times per week) for a little while, then at some point before that six months is through he gets to feeling like he's got this machine all figured out and wicks the twisty bit and get amped on adrenaline. It's indescribable good fun, no matter how long you've been riding, but in those first six months it's way too likely that crash bang ouch will follow and only the lucky ones live.

I'm not anti-motorcycle and I'm only trying to worry you enough to keep you alive. I love bikes and hate being without one now. I technically still own a classic ('77) Gold Wing but I'll probably never see it again and I'm not keen on restoring it again after storing it in my father's garage -- to be splattered with paint, have the battery box and one driving light broken, and have it used for storage, inhabited by mice, pissed on by raccoons, sprayed by cats, and parked outside uncovered in the sun and rain and snow for two years until a friend stopped by and pushed it back into the garage for me. As soon as I'm done spending on my truck I'm going in search of my 13th motorcycle/tenth street bike/fifth Gold Wing. I just want to keep you in the wind and in your Ram, don't want to hear that you're dead, crippled, disfigured, or even just left with a permanent limp.

Take care and be well, man!
