Pulled the trigger and got the ninja 2014 from the dealership for $5420 out the door. Pretty good considering I'm in San Francisco, California. Here's the pics of her!

Most of my money is spent on scooterparts. The rest is just wasted.

Re: Buying first motorcycle!
Great first bike! We went to test ride the new ones a few months back but went with a Suzuki dr200se as my gfs first enduro. She's had a 2012/13 ninja 300 and upgraded to the 636 but doesn't like it as much as the smaller bike. If you're not a big person a big bike can get daunting she's learned.
Re: Buying first motorcycle!
I road a 2000 ZX6R for a few years and love that thing. Picked up a 2005 Ninja 250 last year and could not handle the feel of the bike, sold it to my brother. Those new bikes sure look sharp. Especially the Ninjas and Hondas. I fear I might get the 250 CBR when I see one for a price I can flip.
Welcome to the bigger bikes, I promise you will appreciate the scooters for in town trips. Dont sell them.
