So, that's $550 (plus local taxes) to get yourself decently geared up for riding.  Not terrible so far, but that makes the cost of a Ninja 250 a bit more than you might have been planning on.  Note that some dealerships will throw in a gear discount when you buy your bike; this is an excellent time to buy gear if you can afford it.  Note that prices listed tend to be bare minimum, high-quality (or high-feature or high-comfort) gear can cost considerably more.
