If she won’t listen to reason, might as well suggest the least evil of choices. Either a kawa 650r or an sv650sf. Both bikes will run circles around squids in the twisties and track… hell a good rider on a ninja 250 will do that too…
You should really work on her changing her friends if her friends are really squids. There comes a point, which is hard to do, that you just gotta let them go off and make their own decisions for better or for worse and just hope for the best. So yeh, I guess in a roundabout way, let her become a darwin recipient… She’s kinda the poster child on why we should probably move to a tiered licensing system.
