It was nice.. but something about it didn't do it for me... it was rough... I guess I'm used to a car, but still, this bike was rough all the way till like 4th gear... maybe it is because smaller engine.. needs more revs... test rode the GS500F and it didn't feel that way.... so makes sense...
Still considering it though... dude is not in a hurry to sell it... pretty good condition, only 1 new scratch from someone coming to test ride it yesterday and dropping it... not telling him, then running off....

I did test ride another 2012 CBR250r, and it felt a little rough too... so I guess it might be the one cylinder thing... it was just rough...

Yeah will do... well if anyone else has ridding a 1 cylinder thumper, let me know how it was...
Also, dude let some guys test ride the bike yesterday, and they must have dropped at, coz after they left, he noticed a new deep scratch in the fairing that wasn't there before... 
Lucky he said the fairings are pretty cheap...

I'd hate that man. Bunch of idiots not only to do it, but not to have the balls to say something about it.

Yuppers.. at least own up to it... Oh well, nice guy, he wouldn't have said much to them...
Blah... want a bike, but don't know if this is the one for me...
Megan really isn't keen on the idea of me on a bike at all... when I was telling her about the bike today... she said she likes the look of it, but not the idea... sigh... Oh well...

So does this mean you're not getting a bike at all now as per your GT discussion?

Good. It won't fade, but she'll stop mentioning it every time if you know what I mean.

Very true, and as obvious, the bike he bought wasn't PERFECT. Don't go out expecting perfection from anyone. He has done extremely well in making it look as sexy as it does now. A bit of elbow grease and whatever you buy will come out looking schmick as well.

It is, but needing touching up here and there.

Ah well, at the end of the day you've got a bike that is functioning as it should now. A bit of a wash as you have done and it came up looking sweet man. How is it going anyway?

Yeah I'm not going out there expecting perfection, but decent would be nice... this CBR looked good today, even with the chip in the fairing, but I'm not so ok with the 250 single cylinder thumper engine... still got time to think about it though..
