Just own and ride the 250r, dont mod it.
get through learning the basis of riding and when your licence permits upgrade to something more worthy of spending $$$ on modding.
I don’t care how liberated this world becomes – a man will always be judged by the amount of alcohol he can consume – and a woman will be impressed, whether she likes it or not.

That is the stuff I'll be saving for a bigger bike, bought this bike as an investment only. I'd only invest in bigger things if I planned on keping the bike.

PS when you sell it might be an idea to bring it back to stock and sell off the aftermarket kit separate... get some of your hard earned back that way.
Thanks for the suggestion but I'll need to keep the pegs coz I double my Mrs every now and then. She'd be calling me a selfish B**tard even more if I did that...lol

already got my Full licence, as I was saying earlier, I only bought it bcoz it was so cheap and I knew fixing it wouldn't cost me that much. I got alittle carried away with it though but still under my planned budget.hehehe Based on the area I'm in, I got a good idea that the mods done is actually appealing to the young ones starting out though.

Dats what I thought, it just seemed as though something was missing. I've been looking on ebay for a decal with some red in it and isnt to flash... Any suggestions on a specific decal would be appreciated. :)

Once again, thanks to all for the input, all suggestions are appreciated and look forward to getting further feedback from all of you. :)
