    Hey Nate,
    You do know the Ninja 250 can out run the Ninja 600 0-60 and it is a very flickable bike in the turns. I'm sure you will like it but don't me supprised that after a few months of riding it you'll find yourself wanting more.

    Have fun, Will

        Didn't know it could outrun a 250 in 0-60... it sure is light enough! I've been figuring with my little butt (5'4" 120lbs) on there it will probably scoot. People have been telling me I will want more, but I'm really looking forward to 60-70 mpg (I hope). With the amount of miles I drive, if I can get 65mpg, I'll be saving $500 every 6 months in gas over driving skeeter. Of course, I won't be able to ride the bike *all* the time, but I hope most of the time. That should be enough to cover insurance, and since I got it for so cheap and can fix it cheap, when I decide to sell it I should be able to make money off the re-sale. Even early 90's 250's that are in decent shape are going for $1500... thats a 300% increase over what it should cost me total to have it on the road.

        My dad hasn't owned a car/truck in almost 10 years. Just bikes! He's sorta excited that I got one... my mom on the other hand isn't quite as happy I don't think, but she hasn't said anything yet.
