Yet another "new biker - what to buy thread" ..

[Marvin]

most bike for the money is the Kawasaki 250 Ninja. its an engineering work of art how that much perfomance is squeezed out of that small engine, super reliable, easy to ride, great gas mileage, looks like a full size bike, excellent resale value, low insurance rates, its light enough if you drop it you can pick it up yourself, its a no-brainner as a first bike for anybody
