Default Picked up a used Kawi ninja recently






I want to thank you guys for the valuable information I have received from you guys. I've been going through the posts (and the newb sticky) trying to soak up everything I can. For the record, I passed my MSF and got my license last year, and I'm waiting for my gear to come in. I'm not riding my bike until they do. This is my first bike, I would have liked to have started on a 250, but I couldn't turn this offer down. Not too shabby for a beginner bike eh? Now the specs on the bike:

91' 600
13k miles
Has been dropped, as by the scratches and replaced fairings
I got it for cheap, so I can't complain

Those are water stains on the ground, I just cleaned her up a bit for the camera. Anyone in Philly wan't to ride together sometime?? There's still so much I wan't to learn. TIA

Welcome to the fold!

It's bad form to leave lingerie on the bike seat.

since you seem like you have a good head on your shoulders, ill save you my normal "kawi's arent ****" post.

honestly, you could not have chosen a better bike to start on. learning curves on 250's (4's) are perfect for beginners.

i said what i said because of what ive seen and first hand accounts with kawi's.

but again, congrats on the purchase. it only gets better from here
