There are a lot of 250s on the track as well. I had mine up to 98 with no performance mods. The 300 will go faster with performance mods up to 120. Yamaha R25 is also worth looking at. http://www.topspeed.com/motorcycles/motorcycle-reviews/yamaha/2014-yamaha-r25-ar161316.html
I thought I loved the 250 I had but it wasn't, I am in love with my ninja 300! There are tons of ninjette riders your size. Its a great place to start but the 300 is also awesome.
Riding filled a huge whole in my life. I was happy but felt I was missing something, started riding and feel in love with it. i justvhste winter. As a bonus Hellmutt is happier too. I love it, and make better sammiches because I ride.
More than likely true, but you can't live your life in the past. You should learn from it and move forward, and enjoy every second. Living life pissed off doesn't get you anywhere. I do pity her, but hope she finds a good therapist.
