I bought the Baby Ninja for the price and I preferred the comfort of sitting up a little more. I didn't expect the power to be so pleasing. I rode a Dual Sport 650 on the road in Arizona, but the small front profile got no respect on the roads in Texas. I haven't had that problem with the Ninja. Most riders I meet can't believe it’s only a 250. After the first back road with my son on his R-6, He said, "I didn't expect it to be THAT FAST". His bike was stolen while sitting next to mine. Just watch the power jump around 6-7 grand. You'll be looking for the seat belt...It may not race the 600's on the straights but it sure is fun on the twisties. The only complaint I can find is that the new color with the flame job came out a year too late for me. Great, fun bike to ride to unwind on the weekends and it doesn't hurt your wrists to ride all day, or your wallet.
Upgrades/Accessories: F-1r aluminum pipes, tank bag for the GPS, Deer decal for the windscreen
