my new toy

[screaminglemon]

its a 2001 kawasaki ninja 500. metalic violet purple and grey. 33800 miles. droped and or crashed once each by the previous 3 owners. both exhaust cans are scraped up as well as the top fairing on both sides. i happen to view the blemishes as a plus because it means i wont feel as bad when i eventually drop it. (this is my first bike)

engine sounds and feels strong as does the transmission. as far as i can tell.

i paid 2000. seemed like a good price, seeing that its summer. had i bought it in winter, i would have tryed to talk him down a bit.

i should post some better pics tommorow when the sun comes back, as long as i dont get flamed too bad :icon_razz

You a chick?

lol. no. but i was thinkin to get a pink seatcover and hang streamers off the handlebar ends. would that be appropriate?:sarcasm:

 

[IJ.]

LOL sorry just that here only chicks ride little bikes

 

[screaminglemon]

well, i never knew aussies to be renouned for their brains.:icon_wink

all joking aside. this is my first bike. i wanted something smaller to learn on before steping up to a supersport.

Good move!

Ride like EVERYONE is trying to kill you.
(most times they actually are through stupidity)

[suprahero]

Be careful on the bike for realz though, and I'm still waiting on pictures of the bike with the pink seatcover.

They take 1 disc off the front of the girls bikes

lol, those bikes haven't changed sicne they where designed...in the 80's

Great bikes though as they're still faster than most cars, reliable as hell, and won't try and kill you like a lot of the repli-racers...

Personaly I want a new Ninja 250...

 

[screaminglemon]

yes, the 08+ ninja 250 is a hot bike. but good luck finding one.

also, im a bit of a heavyweight, so i need the extra cc's to push my fat ass down the freeway.
