Whats wrong with long highway rides? Upright seating position and enough power so tucking is not necessary at all with enough pull to overtake going 120-130 easily. I did an 8-10 hr ride with the cbr125 - now that had trouble on the highway. I fail to see the issue with the ninja 300 though.

I think I have to try the CBR500 during the next demo ride to actually feel the difference >.>

Also, on a side note, the CBR500 was 2x my insurance premium for the 300.

Nothing wrong with highway rides at all. Personally, I didn't like the high revving and lack of power up top on the 250.
Next summer, I plan on doing a lot of long distance rides for which the 500 would be more comfortable. The 300 on the other hand would be a great and cheap weekend warrior.

Different strokes for different folks. Which is why I worded my previous post the way I did.
