Default HOT DAMN! BOUGHT MY NINJA!!!!!!! WOOHOO

Sorry for the crazy title guys but I AM PUMPED UP!!!!!! I feel like I did when I first got laid years back. This is what I have been needing for so damned long.

A rebirthing... kinda... yea, i guess you can call it that.


Anyways, I bought my Ninja 250R yesterday and skipped all classes yesterday, except my Tactical Leadership (ROTC) class at noon, and rode pretty much all night. Best feeling in the world!!!! I couldnt believe I had never done this in the 22 years prior to this year in my life... I feel so cheated. But so greatful to have a good bike to ride!!! I got the red one and it had 1.9 miles on it when I got it! I paid $3,773.00 out the door and I got a Blue Kawasaki mesh riding jacket, some Pilot gloves, and a free Helmet - on top of the bike. I feel like I got a pretty good deal. Now, I just need to get some liability. Any suggestions? I need the cheapest I can get. Also, I need to get my endorsement on my license. But I have been riding it, I will confess... One problem with Kawasaki. The tachometer says not to go over 4000 in the first 500 miles. Give me a break! That is crazy. You can barely idle the damned thing at under 4k. I have been putting along the roads and then giving it a little juice and then coming back down. I was told that this wouldnt hurt the bike and would be alright. I will get some pictures up fellas. Only thing that sucks is this...

ON THE WAY HOME FROM BUYING THE BIKE... I wrecked my Civic!!!!! Totally screwed up my hood and will need to replace it... Guaranteed $1200.00 at the least. I am so pissed about that. On the day I get a new Bike, I wreck my car. Damn.

Your emotion put a smile on my face and took me back to my first bike. Enjoy yourself. This is one of the few things in lifethat nobody can tell you you're doing it wrong! Just be safe; always wear protection. Congrats!

Well like i said, riding this thing for the first time was like getting laid for the first time back in the teenage years. you just feel like you are the king of the world; at least i did. haha. Cant make myself go to bed, bc i keep taking late night rides all over town. i am also amazed at the commraderie that exists with other bikers. they all shoot me a little peace sign when i drive by. how cool
