Default Just a 250? Tired of it!!

Don't you guys get tired of people asking what size Ninja you have and when you say it's a 250 they go "Oh, it's just a 250?" I'm so sick of people saying that, even though they have no idea what this machine is capable of. And what's funny is the majority of people who say that don't even own a bike. Just thought I'd see what you guys thought.

Thanks,
Nate

Happens all the time. It doesn't really bother me though. I don't feel I have anything to prove with it.

some jerk with this 1600 harley wanted to race me off the line i was like yeeeahhhh this is a 250 so ummm no. and then I drove off.

Mostly I dont care what people think of me, especially car drivers... but i guess the old rule of thumb replies... i dont make fun of your car so dont make fun of my bike. biotch.

EXACTLY!!! That's how it should be, regardless of what you're riding!

My 10 is awesome on the drag.... But that 250 is the best twistie hitting bike you can get!!

If that HD dude pulls back up again. tell him you'll run him. On the dragon. You will smoke him. I gaurantee it.

Most people have no clue what your bike is capable of. When they ask, just sit back and smile. That 70mpg you are getting, and the twistie fun you have on that thing, is not worth what other poeple think. JMO

I was nice enough to let this truck that was trying to exit a parking lot sneak across my lane of traffic, he was going the opposite way as me. When the guy passes me, he had the f***ing nerve to tell me to get a real bike! I dont get many people putting my 250 down, the thing that gets me is when they say, "oh yeah, a 250 is a good bike for a girl." Geez, just cause I'm a girl doesnt mean I cant handle a bigger bike.
