New CBR 250R Rider

[dmode]

Hey guys, new to the site. Learned to 'ride' on a Vespa LX150 two years ago. Finally got the money to get a new 2011 CBR 250R (with ABS). Glad to be on the site (although I am now a resident of Kitchener, with a hellish commute to Oakville everyday!)

Do you park your bike on the road, and is it black? if so, I've seen it a few times, and it is quite nice .

LOL, yeah, I think I live pretty much next to you, then...

How is it on the highway? I thought about getting one, they look really nice, but I commute to London every few days.

I was working in Kitchener all this week so I have only had to make one trip out to my old place. Its got lots of power on the highway, although I have never owned anything more powerful to compare it to. I am a little nervous about the narrower tires though. I cruise at 110 and it still has umph to spare.
