Hello everyone, getting my first gixxer tomorrow, moving up from an 09 ninja 250. It was a good starter bike, considering I'm only 16. Got sick of that so decided to check out the 600's. One came in at my local dealer from fargo north dakota, an 08 and sold it to me for 8500 with 4 or 5 year warranty. Can't wait til tomorrow! Sup guys?

congratz!! respect the 600. did you trade in the 09 250 or keep her?

have you taken the MSF course?

 

[GixxerKid24]

i sold it on craigslist for 3500, they would give me 28 for a trade
and no i have not taken the msf course, do have a motorcycle license though
i have ridden dirt bikes my whole life, and did fine on the 250, so my dad trusts me on a 600.
kinda scared though lol, dont want to dump it, or flip it
ouch

That would have been a hard choice.

Welcome to the forum :thumbup: Respect your bike and ride like everyone else on the road is out to kill you. Fear people turning left and ALWAYS wear your gear. Even those quick trips to the store.

yeah cant go wrong with the blue and white

congrats man. people might say "oh its only a 600" but thats a big step up from your 250. . i know a lot of people who have had older liter bikes and trade them in for a newer 600, and a lot of people who have been riding for 10+ years who are on 600's now

Welcome - the 600 should be good if you don't let the 16 year old testosterone laiden brain take over. It only takes a second!!!!

Great choice in a bike, nothing comes close to a real sport bike -GSX-R
