Is a Kawasaki Ninja 250 the right bike for me?
my opinion is go with the Ninja 250 and here’s why. i have several friends who own the smaller Ninjas. One owns the 250 and he has owned it for 4 years. He can ride the wheels off of it and can keep up with much bigger bikes in the canyons. Also, he knows when he eventually trades up he will probably collect speeding tickets because he really likes to get on it. My friend with the 500 was a dirt bike rider for years before going to the street. She is wicked fast on it and can definitely keep up with the big boys. The point is to get good on a smaller.bike and work your way up. The 250 will feel comfortable for you with very linear power. It’s not torquey at all and is easier to make adjustments on. It is also slower but does legal freeway speeds…what more do you need to learn on? Also, check the prices on used Ninja 250’s…they keep their value if you don’t crash it. So trade-in or resale is a snap. Insurance is also cheaper…save money for your eventual trade up. by the way, I own
