No guy by any means but I'll put in my 2 cents. I'm wanting a 250, just because. My sister had an older style way back in the day, got rid of it. I like the newer style myself....Basic point for me is I'm not riding anything that I don't feel comfortable on. If I can't pick it up after I drop it (which I'm sure I will) I have no business riding it...PERIOD. Not out for "I'm bad a bad ass bitch bc I ride a bike three times the size of me"...To those who rock that out..awesome! For me, no thanks!
