150 pounds is nothing to a 250. They will push my 190 pound carcass at 65+ mph all day without issue.
Even big bikes are pushed around by wind. I’ve found that a lot of the comfort of a bigger bike in wind comes with experience rather than weight. As you get better you relax and let the bike move under you.
I’ve had some bloody windy days on the ZZR-250, and it handled them fine.
Sit on a bike for awhile before dismissing it as too small. If it is comfortable, it isn’t too small, simple as that.
