Personally, a used Shadow 750, nothing smaller. If you thought that the Ninja 250 was gutless, just wait til u jump on a 250 cruiser. And I don't mean to say that you need gobs of power like a 1300, but u do need some power in order to be relatively safe on a bike. Our best asset and most crucial defense against being food for a cage is our ability to accelerate and the tiny cruisers don't have what it takes.
And if you're worried about price, last spring I bought a 4 yr old Shadow 750 for 3k, about the price of a new 250.
