Does he ride? It's hard to imagine a motorcycle rider who doesn't want more than one.

From what I've read about it, the new 650 looks like a really good choice. I'd be interested in hearing a comparison of your 250 with your 650.

He does,he is the owner of z300 in the pictures.
I jave just finished the break in period,bike handles just as easy as 250.I love the adjustable levers that come stock on bike.It accelerates a tad quicker than 250 (to be expected).Seat height is in the same range as 250.I dislike the lack of ability to whack on the slip on not sure if I'll opt for a full system since ill be advancing to zx10r when I get my full license.In Australia the 650l comes with throttle restriction (will get rid of that some time soon).Previous versions used to have ecu restrictor too,unsure if this one does.Will do a more through review after my 1600ks of break in is up.But from what I've been able to see so far this bike is amazing.From a sporty or touring perspective.It can do it all.

That was fun out in the NT with no speed limits. Hear they have changed that now.
