i have no doubt, last time the 250 was much better with 4 cylinders. feel like superbike too. definitely going to get this one when i got my license!

yeah. that would be a good move. by then, lots of 250r price range jaz between 15-16k. u can say all kawasaki owners who let go of their baby really take care em really damn well. so its quite safe to say, u aren't gambling n wont regret buying a used 250r. Coz i'm riding one. hehe.

Added on October 26, 2010, 8:17 pma ninja 250r review, one of a kind.

Himalayas tour on a ninja
*
Mine is year 2009, bought it on April, mileage clock was 20k, n price is Rm17.5k at Welly Batu Caves. These place is highly recommended. Its a used bike tho. And i'm the 2nd owner.

Well, after i got my bike on the first day, i already change the muffler into AHM carbon. U can say the original setting was very...dull. So to add some fun, i need a good sound coming from my bikes. and AHM did really pull it off.. it sounded more like easy rider compare to superbike tho... not sure if u guys like that kind of setting. Well most people prefer Yoshimura. It have this higher note sound. Not that it sounded like 600cc superbike above.. laugh.gif

N did some test at Genting. My bike sometimes semput or not that powerful when it comes to climbing Genting road.. u know Carbs rite? If its an Injection model, it would be a diff story already. The RPM meter when i rev it to the metal, it will stuck to 9k..while evyone else gets 10-12k... maximum is 14k.. i went to Genting with this outcome for almost a month, once a week. Always kena tinggal one..coz slow. haha. damn 250.

only solution would be changing the whole pipes into FUll system. that cost me Rm450. Total change including muffler was Rm1.3k. I did it at NKS Sentul thumbup.gif
n the result of the performance... is so bloody diff. u can say if i go head to head drag with another 250, i can tinggal him like 1 tiang or 2. Changing into full system really gets all those sleepy RPM into WORKS! N that time, Genting was fun. Going to uphill ofcoz. Downhill is diff story coz it really tears off ur balls. One wrong move, could be fatal. haha...

N afta a while, i change back the whole thing into original setting. Its all becoz i live a peaceful and silent neighbourhood (Hartamas) n that exhaust is damn one of a annoyance. Its too LOUD. Well, since i did rasa all those racing n thrill at Genting, i dun really mind taking it off and start to ride slow onwards. n i really did. But, somehow, the fun is diff. I mean, u can say the original setting are definitely Better. Smooth, not so loud and feels jaz nice. Best thing is? In my 5 months of owning the bike, it never breakdown, gives a crap or ROSAK at all.

Kawasaki definitely a good choice notworthy.gif

If u guys arranging a TT, i might as well join u. If u guys wanna go to Genting, no problem. Its been a while since i go there brows.gif
