my first post here and a few questions

[froggyfrenchman]

just noticed that there are late model gsx250's available from suzuki.
do you think this wuld be a better option than a cbr? because i would much rather spend 5grand on a 2 year old/8,000km bike than a 15yo/45,000km one.

think he has a point, most of the old cbr's have had the shit thrashed outa them for years, much better to buy a near new bike, theres fuck all proformance diference between the two and you could get the spare fairing from just fairings for much the same price.

Anyway, sure youll have fun either way, welcome to the madhouse

don't forget the honda vt250's a little older but just as much fun

Meh, my 250 is 40hp. But not quite up with the same class as the CBR or ZXR. But I can tell you that there is a large difference between my bike and a new model GSX250. Making for an even larger one with the CBR. - So I would hunt around for a CBR that has been looked after.
