Many thanks to Grace, Todd and Joe P., for their feedback regarding shorter riders on the new Ninja 250. I ultimately found a used 1991 Bandit 400 for my wife. A great beginner’s bike if you can find one. Thanks again.

I got mine 2 days ago. I can tell you this is one happy noob. I have ridden 160kms. I have pushed it to 100km/hr at less than half the max revs in top gear, no sorry i am on L license. 80km/hr. But I can tell you it will do highways no worries. I rode it up a steep winding mountain today and it just kept sounding better. Its maybe not a big engine but its so easy to ride and tuned to excite – it only ever wants more revs and teaches me how to ride every trip… I give it the big thumbs up.

I bought mine in Penang, Malaysia for Ringgit 21000, about USD6000. You guys in United States are so lucky to get it at USD3500.
