Hi. Just picked up my 07 250R on July 14. I was really impressed with the fit and finish and how well the suspension handled bumpy roads. I didn´t expect much, performance wise, but it´s ok. Its only a 250. I have been easy on breaking in the engine, doing a lot of city stop and go riding and got blown away with 69 mpg. I have been riding for 42 years, have retired and gone back to college. This is an affordable, fun motorbike. I´m looking forward to putting a lot of miles on it.
