I may end up working about an hour away from where I live and have been looking into small bikes for the commute; motards have caught my attention(I've always been interested in them); mainly the WR250X. From what I've read, they can do about 80mph which seems perfectly fine for highway, and the only larger bikes I've seen is from Kawasaki and Aprilia(pricey though!), and probably Husqvarna but I don't think there's any dealers near here.
Anyways, has anyone rode a motard and can comment on how well they'd do for a daily 1hr(mostly highway) commute? How would it compare to say a 250 Ninja as far as comfort goes? Main reason I like them is because I can play around with them on the weekend and they seem much lighter than sport bikes. Also, what are good alternatives to the WR250X?
