				Yep,
I forgot I even put money down on this damn thing its been that long of a back order.  I just received my 08 Ninja 250R.  I am riding it for the time being, but will now need to sell this thing also.  "not yet" but is anyone interested? – first two tanks were 56MPG.  Im told 60+ is not uncommon.
It is of course Kawi Green.

				Damn...If I didn't still owe so much on the focus, I'd buy it in a minute.  $22 per month to insure this thing with a 19 year old male driver...not bad at all.

				That is not bad,  my Ins payment is 94.    A year.   I can handle less then 8 bucks a month.  This is a fun bike.  I actually like it better then my GSXR750, but only becuase it is ten years newer, and handles a ton better, sure is a nimble little thing.   Untill winter it is saving me 245 dollars a month by not having to drive my 1-ton to work.

				I'm interested, and could wait for the snow to fly for the price to drop.  I'm 70% sure I could scoop it up from you pretty easy for the right price.

				I would think it would be an extremly easy bike to learn on light and not over powered. I would buy one but I afraid that I would "outgrow" it in a year or 2.
I have been eyeing up one of these all Summer but I have another toy takeing all the "Fun" Funds

				I had a GSXR-750.  It was just to tall for me.  This is a great beginners bike, and it goes plenty fast to die on.  110mph is fast when you are that close to the ground..   

   Anyway,  I am looking at the 1190 KTM in Thailand wow it is sexy.  But it is 33K.  I started thinking of importing this, but they are going to start selling them there,  They are considered a "big bike"  in Asia.  All I can say is I cant wait until I can go over 5000RPM's  I just hit the first oil service.  After this I can go 9k.  Then at 1000, one more oil change, and I can open it up.   Yes I am that fussy about breaking in a new engine.  And it sucks to only go 45mph, for 600 miles.

				For Zurno, no these Ninja 250's are perfect bikes for begginer bikes. along with something like a Honda Rebel 250, which I happen to have... 2007, black, it's a cruiser. I'd like 3500 if anyone is interested in that. 2000 miles on it.
