Kawasaki Ninja 250 riders?

i have never touched a bike before but i reall y wanted to try so i was planning on getting the ninja 250. should i pay the little extra money for the 500? but if they are both pretty much the same ill get the 250 for cheaper then when i feel ready buy a bigger bike. What should i do? Is the 250 a good first bike?

yes, please get a 250 first, till you get into the swing of things and get comfortable to ride a bigger bike, ninja 250 is a perfect bike for a starter. have fun and be careful.

I'd recommend that ya get a used dirtbike to learn on. They're alotta fun&take abuse well. A 250 Ninja is a bit over priced.
