For the benefit of others who may not know, this is a common misconception on the 250R specifically.
Is it affected more than, say, a ZZR or ZX6R by strong wind?
YES. But the affects are not much different than a 650R. It's probably comparable to ANY light-weight bike with an upright seating position.
And YES, I DO have experience with all the machines mentioned above.
But if you can't learn to compensate for that, then you probably shouldn't ride - at least not on windy days, and have not developed skills necessary to safely ride a supersport.
Sorry Erv - not picking on you or anything, but I had to respond to this little bit of mis-information.
And again, this is not to say that the 250 is for everyone, and is all anyone should start on. I cannot stress this enough.
