Learn to ride it better. You've already made a significant investment buying an over rated bike, so you may as well get your moneys worth eh?
Good to read you're not trying to keep up.
If your bike still has the factory fitted IRC tyres, throw them away, get something better like BT45, Sport Demons or Pilot Sporty (if you can find them, not to be confused with Pilot Sport)

You can have fun on underpowered bikes and straight lines are gay.

+1

sell your 250, buy a 150 and go bucket racing. You will learn more in one weekend there than three years on the road. and pay less fuel...

It would be smarter for him to spend that money on life insurance / income protection insurance for when he comes off.

Think of the children.

If it's that new Audi/Ducati concept abhorration, then that's a win win in both Darwinian and aesthetic principles.

One of the people I ride with has a ninja 250, He used to have a z6 but at the end of a long ride he is no where near as fatigued as he used to be, But I think he just needs to learn how to ride still even though he has been on the road for many many years he still doesn't counter steer, when you follow him he just doesn't seam to flow that well...

So I second the get some time with a good instructor, put some good tyres on and learn to ride well and it will set you up for a grunty heavy bike, the Ninja will be more forgiving while you find the ways

I asked him and he thinks not...... He might a little while think he doesn't but his corner lines are never great to follow...

He'd think he isn't. But I want my $50

Only if it's an old Audi. The new ones all have 5 star safety ratrings so the occupants will probably live.

Are you retarded?

I believe Katman was referring to the cash that you'd have to pay the Audi drivers insurance company, as without insurance they'll rape your wallet.
