I found a Ninja 250 on CL this afternoon that was for sale at Fremont Cycle Salvage for a good price and decided to go immediately to check it out. Its a 1999 Ninja 250 that had some cosmetic damage with 23K miles on it but seemed to run strong with a straight frame and forks. I negotiated a price and settled on $799. They had already received 5 calls about it but I was the first person to show up. While I was there another prospective buyer came in looking for the Ninja 250 I had just left a deposit on. whew!!! I will pick it up the bike tomorrow.
I was starting to get a little disappointed that I had missed out on 2 other bikes this past week but I'm glad I stuck to my plans and was able to get this bike well under budget. Attached is a picture of it. I can hardly wait to start working on it.
all the best, Vic
