    I getting a bike, but cant figure out which one need some help. The toss up is between V Star 250 and a Ninja 250. I am 5’11 185 lbs. My biggest concern is a bike that will be able to do about 40% interstate driving but not much over 70mph. Please help, I have heard to many conflicting ideas.

    Butt test both. You have 2 very different riding styles in those 2.

    Like Munch says, try each one for size. See which one feels more comfortable.

    I own a V Star 250 and am 5’1″ tall. My husband who is 6’1″ tall has driven it from time to time and it cramps his legs. I think you need to see which bike has the best leg length for your height. I fear the V Star will be too small for you. I saw the new Kawasaki 250. Have you considered it?
