That's exactly where we were. She did well enough when we went around the block with the Ninja 250 but learning to be on two wheels AND learning shifting left her frustrated. She knew that if there was a bike that didn't require shifting she would enjoy it a lot more.

Just to be thorough, I showed her an Aprilia Mana I found on craigslist (auto transmission). Even with the price difference the Zero won out in her eyes. I think she made a good choice. With the lack of maintenance and gas the Zero S will eventually win out on the cost factor.
