Thanks. The C50 is beckoning me. Looks better for those NYC-Boston commutes.

[quote="Ian522"]Technically you can ride a 250 on the highway. It just wont be very comfortable or pleasant. I ride my 450 on the highway all the time, its just not much fun after 30 minutes or so due to fighting the wind. Not to mention I get assaulted by vibration if I go over 75.

My ninja 250 is more than enough for the highways here.... our highest speed limit is 60 -.- hit 80 and you can be convicted of felony, its pretty ridiculous....

I fear with anything more than my 250 I could accidentally be from 60-felony quickly.....

I do and the only issues I have are with my Bikes extremely low weight (I can get my bike off of the floor) which is down to it being a stripped CBX

The Magna is no longer an option... My wife has stalled till it sold. I am not happy at this point, but I guess I will now start looking at the C50 and other similar bikes. If there are any Ideas on other cruisers let me know. I realy liked that bike too.
