Hey Erryone!
ive been getting ready to buy a 250 any day now. i was chatting with my buddy whose been riding various bikes since he was 16 (25 now).
i told him i was about to pull the trigger on a cbr250 and his reply was that its a great bike to start with but that i shouldnt ride on the freeway almost at all. when i asked why, he explained that the bike is so light that any wind force could potentially knock me over. he said that his kawi 650 is obviously heavier and hes had a few close encounters of wind force from a passing semi or just a windy ass day knocking him over. i do plan on going on freeways quite often because i live in San Diego, you cant get anywhere without going on several diff freeways lol.
so what do you think? any issues like this when your riding?
im 6'2" 185lbs 21y/o if that helps
