That doesn't make you a looser newbie - riding a GN250 does.

very true but at the moment i cant do much about it. i am saving tho, but on my salary it may be a while

something reputable will come next!

green squares are reputation, clik on the little '+/_' on the right hand side of the screen to add to someones reputation (if you like what they have posted, or dont) The gold stars etc under people name relate to the amount of times they have posted.

Because you are new to the site...... the green rep (bling) is from someone on KB, who kindly gave you the bling for something you have said...
Click on it and you will find out what you posted.
Until you have been on the site for X amount of time and posted 250 posts you are a junior member of the site. After that you become a senior member.
Some leave their name when they give you bling... others dont.

Gold stars until you get to 1000 posts (I think it is) then it becomes X

The X under their name, means they have posted X amount of posts.
I have a few X's under my name...... look across and see how many posts I have done.... that will help you out.

Now before you ask..... the "L plate rider" under your name will go and be something else when you have posted 30 times...
when you get to 1000 posts you become a "Forum whore".......

Welcome to KB and good on your for riding a GN250.... they are a great learner bike to learn to ride on.

Why? I consider the GN250 an excellent motorcycle for its stated purpose. As an introduction to two wheels, and city commuter it has few peers. Practical, economical, easy to ride, forgiving, easy to repair, cheap to buy.

What an arse kisser! Just kidding.

Most important thing to remember about green and red rep is that it doesn't mean anything in real life! Don't get upset about it like some people do.
