    Talking Ginger Midget is growing up!

    Or at least going faster

    This week I got my hands on a 2011 Ninja 250r, and fell in love with it. Had been riding that Megelli thing for about a month, and loved the ninja so much I managed to put 120km on it in the first night. Introducing Mr GM to the bike once his flight gets in, and hoping he loves it as much as I do!

    Lowkms, not quite a year old, and has a couple of goodies I wanted anyway. Rim tape, Rear seat cowling and a tail tidy. Its that pretty blue colour, and in the sun its gorgeous! Its neither as tall or heavy as I remember them being, so that is awesome! I can't wait for summer to start properly so I can get out on it more.

    Well, yeah its as good as its getting! I'm going out shortly, but mostly because I have to pick something up and its far more fun on the bike. I can't pick him up from the airport without a real licence or a seat!

    Got told off by someone because they thought it was a 600. Even I'm not quite that mad. Yet.

    If you're Ginger ... it's expected ...

    Give it a few months ... and have a close look at the LAM's list.

    I know most of the bikes on the list, and I've had my eye out for a couple of particular ones for a while now.

    Ginger, pink and purple now thank you! My boss didn't flip out, and hopefully B doesn't.

    Its funny seeing the shocked looks on peoples faces when I turn round though!

    May it always shine and remain unscathed! I doubt you'll find anyone who doesn't like the baby Ninja's.

    A pic would be good, in fact I think it is mandatory when one buys a new bike, isn't it?
    You don't get to be an old dog without learning a few tricks.
    Shorai Powersports batteries are very trick!

    I sat on one once. I think I squashed it.
