GZ 250 or TU 250?

[Gidget]

Thanks so much, "mrlmd1"! You're putting to words some of what I've been thinking. I guess I just wish I could have a "beater" bike for a month to get more comfortable on it, then get to the TU or something a bit bigger. I felt raring to go after my class last summer, but after a few months of not riding, I have some trepidations about getting right on a new bike and possibly downing it in a typical newbie mistake. Wanna come up to MI and pick a bike for me?

I think I will check out the bike shops in March and see what's been turned in and go from there. Maybe I can take a test drive on a bigger bike somehow. Choices, choices.....
