2008 Ninja 250R

[xmodificationer]

Well, my dad saw me looking at videos of the 2008 ninja 250R and he asked what bike it was. So I told him, Then jokingly he said "I should buy one" I said "yea ok" and I told him that they are only $3500 new, and he didn't believe me so I showed him on Kawasaki's site and he is thinking about getting one for me for when I can ride, instead of getting me a Honda CRF150R ($4200) because its cheaper and I could eventually (legally ) drive it. He has a motorcycle liscense and he would drive it a bit, and so would I but it would be mine. Opinions? Anyone ever ride one?
