My wife wants one this summer, cant complain about the price, but would like to ride one first. I had a ex500 a few years back, and the vibration off of the engine made it very unpleaseant to ride over an hour.

I just picked one up Friday and I love it so far. This is my first bike so I did the responsible thing and started small so I could learn to ride, not just how to survive.

250's are great, but I've heard the new ones are higher revvers. I don't have a problem with my first gen. I just wish I didn't have to be three gears in to go 40-50 XD.
