That's what I'm talking about. That's basically what I concluded with the Ninja 250 -- for all its credentials as a "beginner bike," there's nothing the average experienced motorcyclist does that the Ninja 250 can't do. (A trials bike rider, however, may have some issues.) It's such a competent package and available at a great price.

Yeah, I used to be pretty active on BARF ✌️
