I got my licence about a year ago and promptly purchased a new 2011 Ninja 250R. I've been riding it since, putting about 2.5k miles on it in about 3/4 of a season. While I think it's a great bike, and I certainly have more to learn, I'd like to get something a bit more sporty. I've been doing a bit of reading into the smaller super-sports (600cc) and like the look and feel of the Kawasaki 6R - I feel that I'm ready for the move. Wise choice or should I hold off another year?
What's a good time to buy and sell? The dealer I purchased the 250R from said I can trade it in for 90% of what I paid any time within the first year - take this or sell privately? Would I be paying MSRP on a new 6R or are there certain times they'll cut me a better deal (end of a month, middle of winter, etc)? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
