    New Guy from Chelmsford, MA

    So yeah, this is my hello. I bought a 01 Ninja 250 a few weeks ago, loved it, it was my first bike RED color. Bought it not running, had carbs cleaned new battery and the bike ran like a freakin champ.

    Ordered new tires for it. 2 days before i got the tires not even a mile from my house, some asshole cuts out infront of me as i'm going 40 and yeah, almost hit it instead slammed on front brake since im a noob and that was first thing i thought of tire locked up, and slid out to the right


    I'm in a Tshirt and yeah, i said hello to the pavement at 40. Talk about road rash.... arms still are ehh scraped up but is healing, this happend 3 days ago. Then I got my inshurance apprasial and they are giving me 2200 for the bike, minus 500 ded so i get 1700$ and get to keep bike, check is in mail, and I found a new bike,



    a............

    90 Suzuki Gsx 750, talk about more balls then the 250. new jets, vance and hines exhaust, got a great deal on it. runs great.


    so yeah i'm from Chelmsford, New to riding and love it. Still freaks me out i'm out in the open with no shell around me if i fall again, gonna order a jacket so i don't get messed up if it happens again. I feel alot safer on this new bike, the other one was scary on highway. no power.

    So hello! If anyone wants my old ninja i'm sellin it for 1000$ clean title and hardly any damage!


    i'll post pictures in a few hours of my first bike and second bike!

    Id love to meet up with some people on here for a ride!

    Welcome!



    And seriously, at least get a jacket. A good pair of gloves wouldn't hurt either.

    If your helmet hit the tarmac from the ninja incident you'd best replace that too....

    go down and see Paul at Motomarket in Acton. Get yourself a cup of coffee and look into getting some gear ASAP. he usually has some good stuff on clearance and he is only right down the street from you.

    Welcome!

    After fifteen years of riding I find myself only riding fully geared up now. Guess I caught boot and helmet disease - lol. I can't believe that at one time I used to go out with just t-shirt and shorts. After a good fall and my share of close calls, I decided I look cooler with my skin on than left all over the road.

    Paul at Moto Market is a great guy, good prices too. PM me if you want to go for a ride sometime, I lived in Littleton for years and know many great routes out there.

    BTW.... I told him to get gear the day before it happened... And a couple times before.... Some people have to learn the painful way lol

    I believe MikeyZ did say that he owned another Katana, wasn't sure about the color.

    Oh yeah, and Maple, if you want to know where you can find good cheap gear, just pm me what size jacket/gloves/helmet you wear and I can probably send you a link to what the online places have on discount.
