I'm really digging the new Honda CBR250. Once my wife gets more comfortable on her Kawi (e.g. after she drops it a few more times), I'm going to trade it in. FI + ABS = !
someone who get's it

... speaking of horsepower numbers for the bikes I offered for comparison:
Aprilia RS125 32.5 hp
125cc Honda RC149 34 hp
250cc Honda RC174 65 hp
And some amateurs are actually recommending it's OK to learn on a Honda CBR600RR that cranks 118+ hp (as long as you take it easy and respect the power)
