Yeah man it sucks big time doesn't it? You pay upwards of 300 grand for the 250 ninja and when you talk with any biker from a western country or australia for that matter .When the question about our rides comes in one can imagine how embarrassing it might be when you say that my ride is the ninja 250 a "ladies and learner bike" .The decision makers have reduced us to being the laughing stock among biking brethren.
You are likely to get more respect if you say that your ride's a 50 year old oil leaking royal enfield or an zillion times re-built RD 350 or an 3 decade old Jawa!!The irony of it.

Man recently drove R125 ...trust me guys except for poser value this bike sucks bigtime...Sluggish start... sounds like a moped...at 70+ till 110 you do feel this is a good bike but when you wanna push it beyond !!!! "ZERO juice" ...it's worse than beefed up FZ16 in india.

R15 owners ...love your bike if you like the to fly... This is a awsome machine sans its looks...inspirational learner bike...And for all you kawasaki lovers..ninja 250 is a bike used in UK as learners bike and has maximum no of female buyers...It's a easy bike; motor is cold and totally uninspirational...people spend huge amounts for aftermarket parts still are not much satisfied with the bike. The bike is infamous for it's woody tyres... i am amused to see how "Experts" are ranking the bike so high. Except for looks it has no Ninja charm. It's like stylized ZMR....

R15 owners play with the colours for your bike and see how awsome it looks...it has a very neat flow of lines use it to your advantage...most of the Mods i have seen are very dissapointing. And most important wait for a proper upgrade...Ninja isn't worth it...

aww..whos the adorable kiddo in the pics?

RX: Dada, I thinks usko pata chal gaya tha k we are capturing her in ur lens.

thanks ken da, words in bold along with pics are great

@nitin--(your profile pic) for one fleeting sec, i thought it was Rossi on the forum
crazy me...

the regular media plays its game everywhere like Sirish of OD was made to accompany few regular jornos on a Accord drive and that regular journo wanted to test the air bags? can you beat that?

@ken-- thanks for the coverage, a million times and yes liked the captions too.

my pleasure sir....!!!

Yes, GS. I was there at the Mega G2G for plethora of reasons, but meeting gsferrari was one of THE topmost reasons. It would have been REALLY great had you been able to make it somehow.

@dcs: Yes, ofcourse rossiter was there. It was great to have met him for a second consecutive time.

@RX: Who is who in the picture would do a great deal in knowing the faces behind the IDs.

how i wish.... May be someday when i get the right package and right profile, i'll be there for sure.

Wish you had been in my office. It was just AWESOME to have you as a companion @ stall

well done tvs
Hope that abs is a success
