Re: Newbe
welcome back / aboard.
I used to have an EL250, biggest problem in that sucker was tank size/fuel range. You'll be hard pressed to get over 190km out of that tank.If you want to use this bike to get back into the swing of things half seriously then the BEST thing i can suggest you do with it (aside from ditching it and getting another bike
is to seriously put a set of renthal flat bars on it, it REALLY makes it a much nicer bike to ride. You may not have the bike for terribly long, but it'll make it a bit nicer to ride if you do that, trust me on it.

If it hurts, you aren't doing it right.

Re: Newbe
Yea, good idea, it is too low for me anyway and was always going to be the wife's, it feels like it is doing astronomical revs at 80 kph tho, I am still ogling the 06 zx6 with titanium paint and red flames.

Re: Newbe

Re: Newbe
What else did the limited edition get over the standard version? There is one for sale now that I am considering.....dave#3 wrote:Titanium with red flames? That's an '05 or '06 model limited edition.
