Yet Another New Rider

Hey everyone. I picked up a 2006 Ninja 650R about four months back and have been loving it ever since. I ride nearly every day and the bike has really become my DD to and from work.  This is my first bike, but I have owned a sport quad for 10 years prior so I had a general feel for what I was getting into. I've been getting pretty caught up in modding and repairing the bike by hand and it is teaching me a lot about the bike, even tried my hand at painting, but after reading quite a few posts about 614 PaintWorx, I've already reached out to Paul to get some plans started, because I don't think my painting is quite there yet.

 

Anyways, I was told about this forum by someone I met while on the bike, so I figured I would check it out. I've been a member of riderforums.com since just before I bought the bike, so any Kawasaki guys out there, head on over, it's a great group of guys who are always looking to help out from all around the world. Check my sig for some How To's, and project walk throughs I've done on my bike and posted over there. As new projects come up I'll try to make sure to post over there and here.  Looking forward to talking to some locals for a change!

 

Here are some pics of my baby:

Thanks everyone!

 

 

I gots one!!! Love mine, you going full white? Also Ello!!

 

Nope, not going full white.  The tank plastics, under fairing, and wheels are all that are going white.  I've recently painted the rearsets black, however they didn't come out as well as I would have liked, so I might pull them back off and try again at some point, or just hand those over to 614 PaintWorxs as well  :p

i got mine powder coated and they hold up great look awesome, even after I wrecked lol.I went the all black and red route, but I wish I spent that money on a track day instead of making it look pretty because it may of saved me from my low slide and after that it don't look pretty no more.:(
