2013 300 vs 2009 250
2013 300 vs 2009 250
Hey all
Just need some options.
Ive looked at a couple bikes, ones a 250 09 at 3700 and one is a 300 14 at 4400.
Both in excellent condition, both low kms although the 300 slightly less. And the 300 had abs.
Both look as nice as each other.
Is the 300 much better over the 250?
Opinions plz

I've ridden both and the 300 is a far better bike in my opinion! For the relatively small price difference the 300 will keep you happy for much longer.. imo

the 250 was a great little bike, but kawasaki didnt upgrade it for no reason... specially at that cheap price

thanks guys!
yer have done a lot of reading. not just with ninjas, for my first Ls bike through all the brands.
I just feel the 300 will keep me happy for 2 to 3 years while i learn and also still stay fun for that long...

Im looking at one more as a comparison tonight....
The only diff being its a non ABS model. Realistically how much difference does not having ABS make?
It also lists on his spec sheets few bits and pieces added including a power commando fuel module. what is that and what diff does that make?
Thanks
