She doesn't want a loan. And insurance for her will be cheaper than that even on a 600. Girls FTW Insurance for me on a Hyosung 250R was 87 per year when I got an "estimated" quote from um... Geico.

What kind of loan did you get for your's anyway?

I fun about 25psi with 91 pump on my 35R I want to go E85 and 30psi or a bit more for fun

(I will stay behind her so I can stare at her *** lol)
I was looking at the Aprilla 250RS as a fun get around town bike that gets good gas mileage

or one of these honda VTR250s...

or the New Kawasaki Ninja ZX-250 R's

and the 250 R

I just want something small and fun lol and cheap to buy and for gas.. I need to save money somehow lol and a Small bike will do that for me + I dont want temptation of the faster 600cc bikes to get to me when I can just hop in my car thats Will beat them and Im safer in the car when I do that

Aprilia doesn't appear to make the RS 250 anymore... Looks like it was a great bike, though I couldn't find a picture of the console...

Honda and Kawasaki both don't have digital displays on their console... Which is why I love the Hyosung. GT250R.

This is the best image I could find, but it looks better now. As far as I've found none of the other 250s have digital displays.

I don't like the 19" part of it (we all know that), but they do look good, they'll look even better once it drops.

I am in the process of tuning (working with Mellon) the car for the current mods. Did a bunch of passes at 21psi with no knock and then at 23psi with knock at 1-2 for most of the range but before finalizing the tune I just wanted to get some input on what you guys were running at altitude and local gas on stock turbos.

Whatever Mellon recommends then is what I would say.

Can't remember the name of the place, I think it is on 106th and a ways west of the freeway.... Either that or 90th and west of the freeway Rapid Cycle! I remembered! Haha. If you have your M endorsement and come in with appropriate gear, you can test drive em too.

Ya He is one of the Best tuners around I would do what ever he recommends If I had a Stock ECU (which I may still do) he is my first Choice for tuning I think you should be safe at 21-25 PSI with stock turbo and stock Injectors on Pump gas.. But I may also be thinking of 93 oct. not 91..

Someone buy my 06 R6 with 2500 miles



if i sell it I think i can keep both my evos!!

it is a great bike, fender eleminator, frame sliders, integrated rear turn signals, flush front signals, switched to GP style shifting(can be switched back in 2 minutes)

wish i could keep it but the evos are prob better for me to keep.
