Difference is on a $2K bike I'd be able to pay outright. On something more expensive, I'd have to wait or work something out financially.

Was wondering about the 250cc. That's what I rode this weekend on the training range, and it felt pretty good, but we spent most of the weekend in 2nd gear, touched a little into 3rd, but never opened it up at all.
That's a good price for a 2006 Shadow with only 1400 miles. BTW, saddlebags tend to add about $300 to the value.

The reason I say the Rebel is too small is A) the size is small (especially for a 230lb guy) and B) the get up and go won't be that great. If you plan to ride in traffic, that could be an issue.
