Kerry... and others stated that she should get closer to the limit on this bike before moving on... Yea and none of us would ever get new bikes! Shit we should wait until a car is completely undrivable before we get a new one. We should wait until our wives are totally unfuckable before we trade them in too!!! TVs should be unrepairable. Clothes unwearable... Of course, I'm kidding but whatever.
The deal is the girl wanted a 600 from the start, she acquiesced and got a 250. Rode it for a month and now she wants a bigger bike. The classic scenario in these cases. I seen it online and in real life a 1000 times. A guy gets talked into a smaller bike than he wanted and ends up getting bored and buying the bike he wanted in the first place. Say it isn't so... You all point to your little cloister of e-friends from your forum and say, "See so and so kept his 250 for 3 years before getting another bike" but you totally ignore the 100s of 250s on the market from '08 and '09. Cathy lives where there are tight twisties to ride everyday, the other girl took hers to the track. I could live with an Aprillia 250 under those conditions (not the Kaw-chassis sucks balls!) Kawasaki updated the looks but no so much the performance. There are literally faster, lighter, better handling/performing scooters out there! |

Fine bring me your "Busa and take this 250 for a couple months. If a 250 was fine for the street then why don't YOU have one? From what I hear, you didn't even start on a smaller bike yourself. Oh and I found 20+ 250s just in this state when she got hers... there were up to 5 at Ron Ayers at one point this Summer. I don't pretend to know all the numbers but I'm willing to go out on a limb and guess that over half are sold in the first season! |

So because your ass couldn't handle it, no one can? Oh and was your crash before or after you took the MSF course? Where did I state that there was money to be lost, focus man. I don't know which discussion you are having but it's not this one. Money was never discussed, even if you can prove that everyone that got a 250 made money when they sold it, it doesn't change the fact that they sold it in the first season. 250s are sold in limited numbers in the first place so it's not all that strange... In fact, I'm going to go out on a limb and say that there are more 600s sold than 250s. |

bike delivered sat night of MSF class, cousin test rode it for me, i rode 2-300mi that night. rode the VFR to MSF class sunday, rode to work on monday thru HEAVY traffic , it rained on the way home. other then a ride in a grassy field on my cousins cruiser 1x, 1st time on a motorized bike was MSF class. knowing what i know now, i prolly woulda been a better bike handler on a 250, but when i started riding i didn't know any riders, other then my cousin and he rode cruisers. so like i said, old dogs can learn new tricks.
