I titled it ambiguously for those scooter folks ;)

I put on

1) Vortex keyless gas cap and base
2) Motosliders
3) New oil and oil filter!
4) Decided that I'll keep this bike till it either self destructs or I get it in perfect shape ;)

Cool yellow ninja.

As for me I had somebody else install my chain for me!

But now it feels SO smooth I love it!

Rode it 480 miles. I took the long way home, and it was glorious.

No honest man needs more than a Ninja 250 (and some spare oil) to tour.

hahaahahahahahahahah

Hello I am back from the winter hiberation!


Took out the motorcycle battery and put it on the charger. Only let it charge for about an hour before I tried it again.


It's back on the charger for awhile lol!

I AM A CERTIFIED PRIVATE PILOT.


I now wear aviator sun glasses, fly airplanes, and pick up my girlfriend on my motorcycle.


Such a blast ;)

Weather is pretty awesome in Texas right now, wish my bike worked.

Hey dudes the weather has been great here in Texas!


Installed a brand new everstart battery into my SV and lubed the poo poo out of that chain after I took a steel brush to it to knock out some rust :watup:



God drat I didn't realize how much I missed the freedom of motor cycle riding!!!

I spent 800 bucks to get my bike up and running for the riding year. I haven't ridden it in over a year.

Can I tell you how excited I was when I learned I could still ride, AND go VROOM VROOM?

gently caress yeah!

New fork seals, new brakes.


Great to be back riding again.
