636, 599, doesn't matter. Either one is gonna be a fucking eye opener as to how insanely fast the middleweights are compared to an ex250.

Don't let 37cc's dictate what bike you look at vs what bike you completely dismiss. Either way you're QUADRUPLING your power by going from 25rwhp to over 100.

Good pov.... and in all reality the new 09's weigh so much less, have a stompin motor, and have so much more in technology and advancements that the gap would be null.

And to be honest I'd almost take the 07/08 more than either 636.... get Sixx and Kell in an argument on who's blue zx-6r is better! Haha

Just an opinion. Take it for what it's worth.

It's a Ninja 250. Why worry what it looks like? If looks were such a huge concern, why get the 250 to begin with?

The money you'd spend on new wheels would likely buy you some decent gear or actual tires or maintenance...

Relatively speaking... with the jumper mod done, would the 08 be faster than the 06 636?
