Should I buy a Kawasaki Ninja 250 or a Honda Rebel 250?

Assuming they are both newer and have the same amount of miles, which would be a better bike for me? I'm short (5'4") I want to just use it for getting around town and doing a Chinese food delivery job 3 days a week.

I like the styling of the ninja but I can get the Honda for $1500 tonight...the ninja I'll have to haggle a little and hope I get it...or just save a few hundred more.



What is resale like on both bikes? Is it harder to sell one?Should I buy a Kawasaki Ninja 250 or a Honda Rebel 250?
It is PURELY PERSONAL PREFERENCE. What's better, Ford or Chevy? What's a better editor, EMACs or vi?



That said, there are some actual differences. The size of the gas tank.

(Don't laugh, that' how close they are.) If they are IDENTICAL 0-60, top speed, and one has a half gallon bigger tank? You can go further between refills, right? If the Honda you want to buy RIGHT NOW and that is important to you then go ahead, buy it . There will be no 2-300 dollar differences between the bikes.



By the way the gas tank on the rebel 250 is 2.6 gallons (1.9 gallons, with .7 gallons reserve). The Kawasaki has 4.8 gallons capacity (I assume that is the whole thing, not just main tank, it would include the reserve. Note the Kawasaki seem to be the leader in gas capacity for these two machines, but have you considered the Honda Nighthawk 250? 4.3 gallons, about 300 miles between fill ups!



Note these are the current capacities. Not used ones, different shapes and sizes have different capacities, different model years. 300 miles between fill ups? Wow!Should I buy a Kawasaki Ninja 250 or a Honda Rebel 250?
I think for you the biggest factor is seat height. Have you sat on both? I'm sure the Rebel is a good bit shorter. I would think the Ninja may have a little better resale, but not enough difference to really matter.Should I buy a Kawasaki Ninja 250 or a Honda Rebel 250?
for delivery work the rebel the food Will be cold when you get there. I would go for a scooter if it was me doing that and then a Givi box on the back.
