In some ways I preferred the Ninjette with the fairing to my naked ER-6N on the highway. It was nice to tuck in under the wind blast and just cruise, as opposed to beating my way through the air! I never felt like the 250 was dangerously underpowered, unless I was driving dangerously. At sane, legal speeds (and most illegal up to about 90 MPH) the Ninjette was fine.

People that need the throttle to get them out a situation are usually responsible for getting into that situation in the first place with poor riding habits or decision making skills. once I knew the 250's capabilities I rarely lacked for power, I just changed my riding style accordingly.
