Be sure to get training wheels and handle bar streamers if you get that 250.

You, sir, are the reason so many kids get killed or hurt in their first year! dumbassOriginally Posted by Psycho

Ninja 250 has taken the place of the SV650 for size. I like that the 250 gives you a feeling of confidence. That is not to say you shouldn't respect the bike, what it means is that you wont have to worry about throttle control as much as you would on a race bike which is what all the ZX, CBR, YZF, and what not are.
I'd do this if i were you.
1. Out of your budget, #1 priority is proper gear.
That means a GOOD Helmet (DUH), jacket, boots, and gloves.
2. For your first bike, by something you are not afraid to drop. Fairings ain't cheap. Also, like we have said in this thread, start small, it is likly to keep you alive. Race bikes should be had after at least a year of riding.
3. Take the Georgia Motorcycle course well worth it for just $250 that many veteran riders retake over and over to be fresh on their skills.
4. Don't try to be a stunter. Get fully in touch with the brakes and clutch controls and from there proceed to learn more advanced riding techniques.
5. These techniques need to be learned at a race track. The street is where your chance of dieing is infinetly greater.

Anyway, yeah you will outgrow a 250 quick. BUT it teaches you a lot. On twisty roads it's a blast, and very light and fun to toss around. The SV650 is also a great bike, that's one I look at possibly getting next when it comes time. I see a lot of SV650's on track with good riders showing GSXR's what's up![]()
