I think most here would say to get the Honda. Ask the same question on a Ninja forum and they will say the Ninja.
At first the Ninja was first choice and for a time the only choice for a 250cc bike here...I then found out about the Honda CBR250r. price was great. i did alot of reading about them and everything i came across was positive.
i checked out both bikes sitting on them, feeling the weight... the Honda is a bit more upright sitting (which i wanted) Then(as Acura says) there is carbs vs Fuel Injection. better low rpm torque on CBR. more modern look and instrument panel. Top speed isnt so much of a factor. I can cruise at 130kph all day and is as fast as i want to go.
