If the clutch is really wearing you out... and you (or someone you know) are mechanically inclined... you can switch out the clutch lever/perch from a ninja500 onto your 250... you can adjust that lever so you don't need to reach as far to squeeze the clutch.

KarateChick... neither of your bikes were the US ex250... the Canadian bikes are a lot fancier (and more expensive)... we don't get adjustable levers or aluminum frames or a few other things.

Well then DRAT huh for you and lucky for me i guess

The 2001 was an EX250 though.... but then again in Canada....

Yeah, it sucks for us... all the way to the bank.

Canada got the EX250H in 2000. We still get the EX250F

The EX250H is better known as the ZZR-250... but in Canada it was sold as an EX250 for a few years.

I would like the H better as a bike... but I muuuch preferred paying for the F.

lol nice, i may need those for taking some long trips.

yea the clutch isn't too bad, just wears my grip out after a while, but i'm hoping it strengthens my grip along the way anyway one day i'll be able to squeeze an apple and make it explode!

I'd say use 'em any time you plan on going over 20MPH... but that's me...
You know what they say about leading a horse to water....


My left arm was sore for days after the first MSF range day... just from constantly working the clutch. Now I hardly notice the effort. I'm not sure I like where you are going with this apple thing though....

www.powerballs.com sells some interesting grip strengtheners. Minds outta the gutters BOYS! You can pick them up at pretty much any sports store that sells climbing equipment.
