Guy i work with had a ninja 250, with him at 65 years old and 125 pounds and me at 250 pounds and 25, it was a sight seeing us ride off to lunch toghether... I read a great article comparing the 99 250 of the nighthawk to the ninja, will try to dig that up tomorrow... Besides style and a 6th gear there almost the same specs (similar HP, similar weight...) he put a 2 brothers exaust on it and it woukd rattle windows, dident like that -----Original Message----- Date: Wednesday, September 15, 2010 8:09:26 pm To: [email protected] From: "Kurt Nolte" <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Fuel Mileage
