    Pics of the ugly duckling

    Finally got around to pulling the flame decals off the step daughter. Now I don't have that "It's so slow it's on fire" look anymore. Need some new mirrors and signals, as well as a fender shave now.

    about 3100 now, it's a 2007. It has a few minor minor scratches, and one small crack in the lower fairing, otherwise it's mint

    If you're looking for in-depth walkthroughs for a Ninja 250, I've found ninja250.org's FAQ area to be extremely helpful. The members there have compiled 20 years of experience to write walkthroughs for A to Z Ninja 250 modifications. My '04 has cleaned up very well from stock pretty easily.

    I'm a little disappointed. When I saw "duckling" I thought it was going to be a Ducati

    Nice 500 anyway.

    Yeah, I'm not worried about the hardware side of things, I have plenty of experience working with things that go vroom. I do have the site bookmarked though, to help with the odds and ends.

    True but normally I would have just assumed 250 because everyone and their mothers sister has a 250. I could have sworn I saw 500 somewhere. I'm fucking tired.

    250 = full fairing

    500 = half fairing

    Most of the 500's I've seen were full fairing

    God damn Jap bikes have to be so confusing.
