    Another FNG

    Hey all, another new guy checking in on the mass/nh border. I'm relatively new to riding. My wife and I took the MSF course back in August, and I started out on a Hyosung GT250. I know, I know, Hyosung... It was a pretty good first bike, but not a long term ride, so I just recently traded it for a Ninja 300. I'm looking forward to some warm weather to get some miles on it.

    Welcome new guy.

    Pics and thoughts on the new bike? I don't expect many of us know much about the Ninja 300 yet.

    Re: Another FNG

    All I have right now is the pic I took after it was delivered.



    The scoot is my wife's Vespa GTS 300 Super. That thing is pretty awesome. I've only put about a half mile on the Ninja so far. I've been itching to get it out of the garage. I'm expecting it to be a huge improvement over the GT250. Although a rusty moped with a broken chain would probably be an improvement... I kid, the hyo was ok, but I really wanted something more modern, and with fuel injection.

    Ill post some more info once I get some more miles on it. If it'll just get above 40.... Anytime now... That would be great.

    I think the 300 is a lot of bike for a new rider. Consider a Rebel 250 first. "Sport" bikes are nothing but trouble. And welcome.

    We don't ride with anyone on 599cc or less. Ruins the forum's badass image....
