Nice bike. I'm getting a '95 ninja ex500, and mine is going to be sort of purple-bluish color with some pattern on the side fairings. Will be very nice when I get it and can actually ride it.

Glad to see you found a bike in tri-state area afterall... if you don't mind sharing, where did you end up finding it (local, Craigslist, Cycletrader, EbAy?)

That is a "purty bike". I have never ridden one of those, when you get it on the road you will have to tell us how it "feels"
I spent my therapy money an a K1200S
The therapy worked, I got a GS now

Kos, I found the bike by scouring Craigslist every day like a madman for about a month. I had a couple of prospects in the tri-state and one of them in Jerz worked out for me. I was prepared to go as far as MD, but thankfully I didn't have to.

Sapaul, unfortunately, Springtime is months away...although we have been having seasonably mild weather here in NY...still in the mid to high 40s with an occasional day over 50. That's pretty warm for mid-January.
So, I gotta wait on that first ride :(
