Hello, I need some suggestions. I'm going to be taking the MSF course next month and am doing some research on which bike to get as my beginner bike.  I've narrowed it down to three bikes: the Ninja 250 or 500, or the Suzuki SV650. So which one should i get? I'm somewhat small, about 5'3" and 120 lbs., and i want to be able to touch the ground with both feet, which I'm finding may be impossible without some modifications.  Any suggestions?

The Ninja 250R would probably be your best bet, although you should take a look at the 650R as well. Both have low seat heights that feel lower because the seats are fairly narrow toward the front.

yea, thats right Ninja 250 best for you, this bike have a little power compromise with a beginner...and has a lower seat.
but the handle bar its too high..just like a touring bike not a sport bike
