18 Wheeler + Evo = New Family

So about a month ago this behemoth decides to eat a little evo for breakfast:







2 weeks go by without the evo (at bodyshop) and I decided to pick this up cause I've always said I wanted to learn how to ride:





Before buying the 250R I was hesitant because I knew I was going to outgrow it but i bit the bullet and spontaneously did it anyways.

2 weeks later...







Present Day, the evo came home to two little sisters.







I love the evo, but holy ****.... the rush you get on a bike is unmatchable...

Gotta give a shout out to Eric @ Driveline for doing me good and rushing out parts to me while the evo was at the bodyshop!

hahaah yea, trust me if i go back in time now i would.... but not knowing anything about riding and having zero experience i was nervous of a 600. and the new look of the 250 caught my eye. regardless, the 250 is a def a fun bike, handles AMAZING, and the perfect bike for any beginner.

SpunEvoIX: i'm actually going to be selling the 250 to a friend or family member.

That 250 looks damn good. The first shot, I would have guessed it was a ZX-6R. The front shot, it's a bit more noticable that it's a 250.

I really want to get a bike. Either a Triumph Speed Triple, or a Honda Repsol CBRR1000. Ducati 848 or 1098, if I could afford one.

Sick bike Kevin. I'll keep an eye out for the bike in Woburn, or spot mine and flag me down
