Lol Newman thank you. I will probably swing by on the way home and pick that up :tup:

Why not a 250 ninja, because with a 250 bike I will eventually find myself wanting to jump onto the highway etc…then realize the 250 is not big enough and will jump up to a 600…then back to a 900.

I sold my 900 after a crash and havent been on since. Im not looking to ride a motorcycle again, just something to save on gas to and from work.

Something like this but not $1000

I would love a CB125 or a Ruckus but

1. cant find any CB125’s
2. the Ruckus are expensive

BTW- whats with craigslist only letting you search a town/city  
I wanna search with in the state. Isnt there a way to do that?
