| Re: I Think I Found What I Am Getting!!! Had a chance to ride one at the very end of this last summer and they are pretty fun little bikes. So light you can throw em around like they are nothing. And was able to wheelie it with no throttle, just cruising and yanked up on the bars. |

| Re: I Think I Found What I Am Getting!!! Is that the Kawi Ninja 250? I'm not up on my Kawis so I can't tell from the picture
If so, the Ninja 250 is an excellent choice for a first bike! |

| Re: I Think I Found What I Am Getting!!! i'll prolly be the only person that says this but u'll outgrow the 250 FAST i would suggest getting a 600. by outgrow i mean get tired of it within a season and then be stuck trying to sell the 250 to buy a 600. |

| Re: I Think I Found What I Am Getting!!! I dunno about outgrowing it. There's plenty of guys having a blast racing them. If you eventually end up doing a lot of (boring) highway miles, it might be buzzy. Other than that, I don't think you'll outgrow it all that quickly. And, if you do, you can easily sell it. I still say you've made an excellent decision for a first bike! Kudos to you! |

| Re: I Think I Found What I Am Getting!!! my brother has one. it is fun to ride, and once it is at speed it will corner with bigger bikes. it weighs nothing and holds great corner speed. My RC51 will kill it off the line, but that bike is fun. only just remember you can power out of slower corners like with the RC51, you have to pick the bike up out of the turn. |
