first gear is alright. theres soo many brands out there.

i dont worry about brand names, try on jackets until you find something that fits properly. most dealers carry decent stuff.

also try stuff on at the dealers and then go online, you can usually find it for a good price.

so are you looking or did you get a ninja 250? if you did post pics !

I dont think the 250cc is a bad idea. Still a nice looking bike and can always keep to just mess around once you grow out of it.

I would so keep a RX7 rotary. Just love the sound. Reminds me of a 2 stroke lol

I've been a big rotory head for a while, but I'm fine with the lsx swaps. I've always thought the rotary was better suited to a really light chassis, like a Lotus 7 or Bugeye Sprite.

Welcome to the 26/motorcycle thread. Looks like you have some good gear and the 250cc is a good bike to start out on.
