But personally if i was in your situation I'd go an Early 95-97 zx6r mate. More punch then the Twin with the cheap purchase, mainteneance & insurance costs. 
Or look at a ZX7R you don't need to rev it as hard and stepping up from a 250 was not as bad as some thought (including me).  

 
yeah, but you need to build up those butt cheeks to be able to do a couple of hundred kays without hurting for the next few days 

 these things have a harder seat than the blade

				plenty of valid posts..and strangely..Mina has a valid point... u WILL acustom yourself to ANY new bike over time....
vtr1000 firestorm isnt a bad bike if u want a twin- plus its a low Catergory insurance.
other than that id look at the cbrf2-4 or zx6r 96-01...
