My Ninja 250, admittedly a budget ride, was poorly assembled and had crappy fit n finish, my 636 is fast as hell but the noisiest SOB I have ever ridden. The forks creek and pop, the body work fits loosely and has too many plastic fasteners, the thing shifts loud, and it sounds like I am carrying $2 in change everytime I hit a bump...

But its fast.

Even if the trans is a pile of poop.

Indeed. I had a chance to ride both an 04 and an 06, both pull like a bitch. Only problem was neither of them turned as fast a lap as I thought I was going damn bike fucked with my mind.

Mine is still stock, nothing but brake mods (lines, pads) and it rocks the track. I have ridden alot on the street with literbikes and unless you have a 3 gear straightaway, by that I mean room for a liter bike to breathe, i can make pace with any bike. Usually working the gear shifter harder, but just as quick.
