It certainly does...Sounded nice with the standard cans on, sounds awesome with the Arrow system fitted. For all those who've never heard a proper triple, here's mine with the Arrow fitted.

no Roadbike at the moment; renovating the house takes precedent but still got my '04 GAS GAS 250TXT
Trials Gear
Helmet: Airoh Rock
Trousers/Jersey: Hebo something or other
Boots: Diadora Stone 3
Gloves: Oddysey BMX Gloves 
Road Gear:
Helmet: AGV S4
Winter Gear: REDWELL breathable, textile jacket and jeans.
Summer Gear - need new leathers when I finally get round to buying a new bike
Boots: ARLEN NESS 1064 BOOTS (missus) got me these for my birthday; not arrived yet but should be here this week
Gloves: Alpinestars GP Pro
I still have time to change the order on the boots; they were a bit of an impulse buy - anyone got any views/ideas for boots. My old Frank Thomas boots have done me proud but they're not high enough and look a bit dated now

Get yourself some of them nice new funky red/black/white Puma boots.
If they done them in better colours, i'd be tempted for pure pimpness

It's an R&G tail tidy. Expensive compared to most other R&G ones, and a bit of a pain to fit.
Still, it looks better than the 'mudguard' it came with originally LOL!

Dont suppose you have had a go against a 400 have you Mike? Just wondering how it would hold up against mine (ZXR400), as yours has the modern tech but less power. Could be interesting

I've wondered what those little 250's go like. Read lots about them handling wise is good, just underpowered.
Have you got a full license? What made you go for a 250 out of interest

I've not Danny sorry. I shouldn't think you'd have too much trouble though.
Twice the power of mine. Plus mine is really the old ZZR 250 with revised parts and dressed up a bit different.

I think the 08 and 09 bikes are the same except for an extra £600!!! Or £700 if you go for the Special Edition!

Yeah, so different to ride compared to the duke. ALOT smoother, seemed nice to ride. Are you happy with yours?only thing I thought a little odd was the position of the bars, they make you sit upright! lol

Yeah i'm really happy with it, wish i could get out on it more often.
I agree with you about the bars, they do sit you up more than you'd expect, but then the bike is aimed more towards the new biker.
