As a have had several 250´s, I can honestly recommend either finding yourself a "single thumper",as they call them in kangaroocountry.these have plenty of Grunt and dont have too many expensive repairs needed.i.e. 1xpiston.1xcyclinder.etc.otherwise maybe a twin with a large bore,like a virago.with the laws in Victoria everybody usually just endures their time on 250´s and then has a good pick when you get a bigger bike.
