If you want to refresh your memory on a 250 you should take the Motorcycle Safety Foundation class and save your money for a ride with more horsepower. The MSF uses 250s and the two-day course should give you enough of a refresher that you will know you want a bike with more muscle.

You will outgrow it. I would get something bigger unless you don't plan to use it much or are only concerned about gas mileage

It is a great little bike if you do not plan to go out of town at highway speeds. I have a 650 V Star and it will go anywhere you want. It is a bit heavy when you are stopped but stable as a rock when riding .. and 50 mpg to boot.. Be careful out there.

Can anyone tell me exactly where Eval Knievel is living in Clear Water Fla.?

Here in PA they offer free motorcycle safety course and provide motorcycles for the course, They are 250's and most of them are Honda Shadows. These are good training cycles and are not very expensive. However, if this will be your first bike buy used and pay cash, get the experience of riding before moving up to bigger and more expensive bikes. I have had friends who bought big bikes like Goldwings and rode only a few times then selling them at a loss because they weren't ready for a big bike. Nothing wrong with starting small and working up to bigger later on. In fact the smaller bike will normally sell quicker when you are ready to move up, then use the money for your next bike.
