[RodneyBR]

I don't get it, the ad. says he wants 4000$ each.

He must have changed it since.

Another review of the CBR250....

[HorizonXP]

I've ridden the Honda and Ninja, and I have to say, the Ninja's better, even if you disregard cost.

The only appealing attribute of the Honda is the option for ABS. Otherwise, it's top-end speed is not great, and it doesn't have as much "get up and go" as the Ninja. First gear on the Honda is sub-50 km/h. It's ~60 km/h on the Ninja. This has an impact when you're riding street, as you're "supposed to" stay in the same gear through the intersection. On the Honda, you'll be looking for 2nd gear earlier in the intersection than you would on the Ninja. The Honda also seems to vibe more than the Ninja, if that were even possible!

Congrats on the pickup anyway, they're both great bikes. I just know that in a few years, when I've decided that a big litre bike is too much, I'll be back on the Ninja that started it all for me.

I swore this was going to be a "swap the bike for your wife" thread.

I'm sure some one else will trade you their wife for a 250...

Is this for real, the new Yamaha YZF-250 R4...

I hope so . Half the fun is trying new bikes out! I love the look of it, and the yellow. Wonder if it will be at the bike show?

That's a slick looking 250. Not crazy about the yellow colour scheme but the pipe on it is nice.

Have a red one lined up. If all goes well, I'll pickup on Saturday morning.

Forget getting dressed properly. Jump out of bed in our jammies and just go get that bike, lol!

Ok, now need matching gear...

**edit** The red one, I mean .

Looks photoshopped... I think that pic has been floating around the net for a couple of years.

I might trade the wife's cat, but only a "good" 250 would be worth the grief.

ABS is the best feature on a motorcycle since disc brakes. I wouldn't want a bike without it.
Saying that you shouldn't get it, because not all bikes have it doesn't cut it with me.
When I do the refresher course in the spring I have to slow down on the emergency braking section, so that riders without ABS, don't try to imitate me.

Yeah, it looks like it... I checked Yamaha's website and there was no mention of it.
They do have a 125 for the European market though...

Yea, for me The R6 is sexy, especially yours, but insurance is a bit expensive for me ATM. Realistically, my next bike will probable be a FZ6, unless I can get an FZ1 for cheap.
