Kawasaki Ninja 250

[JimS]

My sister picked this bike up for $800. It wasn't running very well and was in bad shape cosmetically.

I brought it to the shop and got it running great after cleaning the carbs and intake. Afterwards I decided to strip it down and make it look decent. The original plastic was white that had faded to a pee yellow color and it looked horrible. I sprayed it with Duplicolor rattle cans - both blue and clear and then wet sanded, buffed and polished it to a beautiful shine.

I think it turned out great and she is happy with it. With 34 horsepower, it really picks up speed quickly - especially from 5k rpm up to its redline of 13k.

Hopefully she will enjoy it as much as I enjoy my KPR!
