The first line of this add is hard to believe. 

 

Sales Pitch to an unknowing buyer...

You really want to buy this gs500 because i've down a little tweaking and now it will out run a gsxr1000!!!

yaaaaaaaaaaaa right

"It is a 2003 Kawasaki Ninja 250, It had one owner befor me and that owner tweaked a couple things to where it is as fast as or a little faster than a 500. The engine is still in perfect condition, it only has 4000 miles on it. It was laid down once by first owner and has a crack and some scratches as shown in the picture.It is a great beginner bike. I am askin $2000 for it but will possibly negotiate. If interested you can call 614-604-4202 or email me at reaper_0707@yahoo.com"

You can tweak a 250 to run faster than 500 , but it won't run for long ,ha ha ...stupid !

Lucky Euro bastards have all sorts of 250's that'll rip a 500 to shreds   But we never get any of the cool bikes over here.   Instead we get shaZam! like the B-king.  Seriously 14k for a busa minus plastics and the busa is only 12k?  No thanks,  I'll take my high interest rate loans to the an italian dealer.
