To answer the question in my title: Definitely not an insecure man or woman. A man who needs the horsepower and engine capacity numbers to compensate for a small part of his anatomy is not going to want to ride a 250.
Sorry boys and girls, but I don’t need a 1000cc mega sportbike that’s financed to the hilt to feel like a man. I am a simple, practical kind of guy. I enjoy riding a motorcycle around town during the weekday and maybe occasionally ripping through the twisties on a nice weekend. But most importantly, I like to save the environment by not emitting as much pollutants as high capacity engines, and saving on gas is always a plus!
Many beginners tend to favor the 250 for its affordability, size, and comfort. The riding position is upright, so it gives beginners the confidence needed to properly learn. If one inevitably drops it, it’s affordable enough to not dent the wallet. And for most, it is the only motorcycle they can plant both feet on the ground while sitting on it.
