I haven't tried it myself, but I have sat on it, and it feels like a pretty nice bike. I am not sure but I think the cbr250 is being in production in Japan for few years, so this might be a new model for the US only. I like the fact that you can get an ABS option, which for me makes it the obvious choose if compared with the Ninja 250r.
