Also considered



Another motorcycle I considered is the new Kawasaki KLX250S. I really like the way this bike looks. For 70+ MPH highway riding, though, it would leave a lot to be desired, and even given the high MPG of a 250cc single it would have limited range with only a 1.9 gallon stock fuel tank. With a MSRP less than $1000 below the two 650's I've narrowed my choice down to, it just wasn't worth the compromise in performance. If all I was going to do was ride around town or local dirt roads (and I could also afford a touring bike for the highway), this might have been the way to go. Maybe if I win the lottery...
