Hello and  Hope you get that S soon! Glad to see you got some riding on that 250. All to often folks start too big. I like seeing someone start small and work their way up.

 to the NHF. Looks like a clean 700. That 250 looks fun to ride. How long before you pick up the 700?

And probably this Saturday or Sunday. Waiting on an insurance check, they said we'll get it in about 5days + a 5day holding period for anything over i think $5,000 so yeah.. But the she's gonna need a new bikini, Battery, Instrument glass(its shattered) and there is a small dent in the tank. But its also got a Corbin, MAK 4-1 and all the stock parts(seat, mirrors, exhaust,etc)
