New ride

So I went to many dealerships but without a co-signer I had no luck. Being that I'm 20 with fresh credit I wasn't able to get another c350. So instead I picked up a 2011 kawasaki ninja 250r! Should help build my credit up and gas will be great at 55-60mpg I plan on getting either a used 2010/2011 c350 around x-mas time after I payoff the bike and have a good amount of credit built. Heres a pic off google as its late out already.

Less than 4K is what I'm guessing since it's the 250.

Actually no, I take back my previous comment I commend you for the intelligent purchase. lots of new riders jump on zx10s or R1s and the like, just to be cool. The new ninja 250s are actually a good mix of style and easy to handle performance - I think it is a smart choice!

I've been a local road racer of 600cc supersport/superbike classes for the past 7 years or so and used to be pretty into the street scene, although now I don't even own a street bike My user name was my first sportbikes.ws forum name that I came up with in 03 and it stuck.

4.2k and 5700 after everything. I only put 2500 down so I could finance and build credit. But its a great beginners bike. And 55 mpg is crazy!


LOL at the tough guy post, gtfo.

not to burst your bubble, but a few month won't be enough to build up your credit..
your credit is not just your credit score too, it is also about how much discretionary spending you can afford..
your best bet to get financing approved is to save more to have a larger cash down and smaller monthly payment..
the other approach you can take is to get pre-approved, try a few banks and see what they offers you and take your pre-approved letter to dealer and avoid dealer financing..

congrats, just be careful on it. I had a Ducati 749 about 5 years ago and spent a week in the ICU and then 20is hours in the dentist due to a pretty bad accident. Then a year ago i had a 06 R6 and while riding with my best friend and car pulled out in front of us, I bailed but he smashed into the car and died in my arms. not trying to sound all depressing just saying be very careful but enjoy.

Congrats on your new bike, my first bike I owned back on 1986 was the Ninja 250cc then I got me a Ninja 600cc
