Not out on what im gonna buy yet.
The Kawasaki is lightweight and nimble, with a low gravity, but $5,5k, and pretty hard seat and suspension. Fuel mileage could be better as well.
Suzuki GW250 is number two in performance, and worst gas mileage of the 4, and I feel the handle bars are way too low for a tall person. About 10in too low, due to the higher seating compared to the kawa. It's also significantly heavier, and feels heavier.
Number 3 will be the Honda Rebel, probably my new bike. Best seat, better gas mileage, twin cylinder, soft suspension. Somewhat cramped handlebars need to go up an inch or two, not to hit my legs.
Last, the suzuki TU250x, best gas mileage, reasonable seating position, lowest speed, is only a single cyl, and worst looks.
So far, my eye is on the rebel250, even though I prefer the looks of the ninja
