These bikes are for beginners to feel confident on but arent meant to be ridden at the absolute limits where the lightweight makes for instability or abrupt manners. So really the whole big vs small thing is a mute point. Styling, seat hieght, play more of a role.

I think it's cool, but it will be underpowered and, in typical Honda fashion, overpriced. If I wanted a 250, I'd definitely be going Ninja.

That said, the 400 class really is where it's at. I got a lot of seat time on 400s when I lived in Japan, and they are an absolute blast. Trouble is, the pricing on a 400 is damn near the same as a 600, so they really wouldn't sell well in the US.

I like this and the VFR's styling.

Are these 400s full on sport bikes like 600s, or more semisport like the 250?
