Upshift...
 

that 250 looks pretty good with the fairings off... you should consider keeping it that way...

I really want to make of those ninjatards as my commuter bike.

Seeing his bike with the fairings off makes me think the same thing... I'd rather just go fully motarded though...

fully motard wouldn't make a good commuter bike, hence why I want this:

depending on if Andrea decides to ride or not, this may be reality next season for me. Otherwise I will be commuting on a new 250.

I still think that anyone bigger than a 3rd grader would snap that sub frame as soon as they sat on it... it needs supports BAD

are you in north ga near augusta i saw a red 250 on the interstate fri when i left the dmv off exit 5 i know there are a million rolling around but if you are lets get up and ride we do clarks hill a lot and there are a million roads through there with decent twisties

Thanks, yeah I was considering not even putting them back on when I took them off the first time and with that crack in the upper fairing I dont think it would hurt. Just dont know if it would hurt resale if/when I sell it :idk:

Sure thing man. Im trying to get my mom comfortable with me riding it on the roads right now so Ill let u know once Im able to actually ride it :lol: Im near Chattanooga so I'm quite a ways from Augusta.

cool whenever your out that way or even out at thurmond fishing hit me up

:twfix:

I rode my little whore down to BBW in Myrtle beach it was a lot of fun but i'm at FT Gordon so we have a bunch of people always riding and may head out that way shit we might ride to the gap one of these days don't know yet it's in our plans but good luck we are def going to columbia to see a old co worker who's back problems will not allow him to do the longer treks anymore so we're jus going to columbia to ride with him for a day nway

ride on

yeah, I am not going to do exactly that, but I am doing something similar. I will do a different tail depending on what I can find in good condition in the salvage yard. I just need to get settled into the new house and get that all off the ground before I start this project.

good winter project for ya.

I may end up doing a whole new setup just for the hell of it :idk:

Fuck that... If you did it right, somewhat like what the guy did in Trip's pic, you could make money off that fucker. I know for damn sure that guy doesn't have a lot into his project and probably gets offers to buy it all the time...

Tru dat...I may be looking at some new parts if i go that route. Right now I'm just BSing around fixing stuff that needs fixing, painting old parts etc. Baja designs has some nice headlights that would make a 250 look awesome.

On a side note, does anyone know if I can sand down the old headers/pipes and paint them with that heat resistant krylon paint? If I am going to take the fairings off I want to get the old rust color off of the exposed headers. I dont want to have to buy a whole new exhaust setup.

well the end of next season I'm buying a new bike... my bike will be going to my bro... and i'm planning on take'n his... and trying this... it'd be a fun little thing to fuck around on :lol:

I think its time we got a 'Pimp My Twofiddy' group started :phat:

gettin a 250 Ebbs?

my little bro has one... and I'm giving him My ZZR the end of next season... I'm think'n of just take'n his 250... turning it into a commuter/motard like the one pictured above... :idk:... it'll be my 2nd bike though

Yeah, you could sand them down and paint them... they'd prolly look like shit though... May be better than rusty headers... I'd use high temp grill paint and go black on them bitches... That'd look good.

What is this 'give' stuff you speak of? I'd sell him that shit... teach him about money and how his vagina affects it.

ehh it's my gift to him for graduating from College and ROTC... it'll be a year early... but I'm ok with that.

I'd sell it to him but I want it back when he's ready to move on up... so if he wants to buy it from me... then I'll buy it back... otherwise... I'll give it to him with the understanding that when he moves to a bigger bike... he gives me the ZZR back.

Yeah at least you wont be able to see all the rust :idk: I know they wont look brand new but at least they will look better.
