Really comes down to what you feel most comfortable with. Personally, I think I’d go with a bigger bike, but if you like the 250s then there’s nothing wrong with that. I rode a scooter for a couple years, but mine was a little 50cc so the Rebel was a step up for me.
I don’t think shifting will be a big deal for you, I never rode a bike before and pretty much hopped on my new Rebel and ran it through a few gears just fine. So maybe you’ll stall it out a few times, but I don’t see that as a cause for concern. More important would be handling I think. I’m new to all this too though, so what do I know? Hahaha
The Rebel’s a great bike and I really like mine so far.
