A great little learner bike
By (I am an Owner) on May 23, 2017The GT 250 feels like a larger bike and handles well. It does lack horsepower in the hills and corners but that is a plus as it gives you a chance to practice your gear changing. I found it very helpful while going a 666 km ride through the hill country. A great beginners bike that will not break ... the bank

Great starter bike
By (I am an Owner) on Sep 03, 2011I just got this bike a little while ago for my first bike and I absulutly love it. Originally I was looking at getting a Ninja 250 or a 250 CBR or the Aprilla 125, but ended up getting this little bike since it was more comfortable to ride than the other three. Another factor was insurance, it,s ... a lot cheaper on this bike since it's technically not a sports bike and this being a huge factor me being 16. The bike is great on gas, I get about 340 km on a tank. I hear a lot of complaints about build quality, but those issues are due to poor dealership assembly and not the manufacturer. I got mine at the Gearhead in Ottawa and every thing is fine. The only thing I don't like about this bike would be the tires, I'll be putting new bridgestones on next spring. As far as aperance and feel goes; it is much larger than the competition, the reason for this being that it is actually built on it's technically larger 650 counterpart's frame. The bike still handles well and is a great bike for learning his a larger bike feels without the excessive power. The bike also looks great. It's quite the eye turner that it's sport bike brother is but it's gets quite a few swiveled heads, which is great fir a bike that only costs $3600 here in Canada.
All in all I would regimens either this or it's quite sport bike brother (which is the exact same bike except it has the full farings, costs a little more and more in insurance too), to any one who is looking for an affordable learner bike. The one thing you have to make certain is that the bike was assembled at the dealership correctly, because if it wasn't, according to other reviews, you could be in for a world of dissapointment, regret and repairs.
