Hey everybody!
I've always been more of an old Honda guy, I like the simplicity of 40 year old carbs and a frequent maintenance schedule :blink:
I wanted something cheap and fun, that I can tinker with as I learn more about modern bikes with their coolant systems and fuel injection. It was either a CBR600RR or the Ninja 400. A lot of things that lead me to the Ninja but it all boils down to the old adage, it is more fun to ride a slow bike fast, than ride a fast bike slow.
I did quite a bit of research and took a lot of test ride reviews into consideration. Can't wait to get passed the break in period and really see what it can do. I'm not babying it, but I'm not ragging it out either.
Also, I'm pretty strict about staying on top of a bike's maintenance schedule, preventative maintenance is often the cheapest route. So if anybody has a link on the service manual I can Paypal or Venmo chip in on that.
