I really really love the 250 and still might get one someday, I just need to find a way to improve the protection to a more acceptable level - for me. Still want to make an DG alligator replica out of a damaged one, with an aero shell.
I just mentioned it because I keep hearing people wish for a naked version. I have no use for naked bikes now that I have lived with the CBR250R.
