I'm obsessed with motorcycles and am going to buy my first one in a few months. I'm looking for a 250cc sports bike...
I have done my homework and it seems that the eligable bikes are the:
Honda CBR250RR
Yamaha FZR250, 250R and 250RR
Kawasaki ZXR250
(unfortunately the Suzuki RGV250 is banned for learners where I am)
What do you think of these bikes? Any generic problems with any of them?
Are there any other good sports bikes (not little 125s!!) which I am missing? Hyosung...? Any good?
I have heard the CBR takes a long time to 'warm up' or something... is this a big problem? What does it mean? Do the other bikes/all bikes have that problem?
Also, I am going to have the bike for at least 3 years (Ls and Ps), so is it worth getting a new one, or an old one? Any suggestions?
Any feedback to any of these questions would be greatly appreciated! I don't know many riders, so I don't have anybody to ask about these things!
Cheers!
