The new 2012 Honda CBR250R will fight with 2012 Kawasaki Ninja 250, both of bikes are my favorite beginner motorcycles which it has available in global motorcycles market. Ninja 250 and CBR250R are the best choice bikes for all beginner bikes, while the Kawasaki 250 comes with Parallel-Twin, but CBR250R also equipped with a few better parts such as larger rear tire (CBR : 140/70-17, Ninja 130/70-17) and 296mm diameter of front disc brakes.

If you like the new colors from CBR250R, you should better go to the 2012 CBR250R edition, but if you don't care about the colors, you can jump to the 2011 edition, the "2011 CBR250R is cheaper of prices" than the 2012 edition. Good luck guys.
