I have the $1k difference right here: inverted forks, braided lines, and look at that beefy 4-pot caliper. Then look at the ninja.

RS125 FTW.

I'm waiting for that RS250+ Oh my God,it would be like going back in time to my RZ350 days!!!

It's going to be imported as "offroad" vehicle only. However it does have lights and turn signals therefore certain states (i.e. Texas and New Mexico) will allow it to be registered.

I was thinking about a Husky supermoto next year, but I think that I've found me new luv!!!

The AF1 Racing dudes just had a track day with Aprilia USA on them and they said that those things are utterly sick on the track. Top out barely 100-MPH, but cornering is blazingly fast.

Well, Here is what I'm planning. New 08 ninja 250 minus motor. Place new motor on ebay. Promptly score 350 Banshee twin 2-stroke. Replace in new chassis and enjoy! All and I mean ALL part will be just a dealership trip away. And with the new 08's being used here shortly I should be able to score them hand over fist for $3500... Maybe even with aftermarket pipes and such to sell also. I have been 2-stroke dreaming for 5 years and im just fucking tired of looking to the UK to try and smuggle a shit bike for top dollar into the US. Time to go new and local! Suck it.

Dude, that would be a pretty damn fast bike. You might have to put a 180 or 190 tire on the back. Plus are you going to be able to fit the dual pipes under the fairing? Those expansion chambers are big. You might have to do some serious moding. How are you going to access the air filter without taking the engine out? The air box is not in the same location as the ninja250.
