No but a 250 wont slam you head on into a tree at 160 mph, it will do it at 90.

And for what its worth, I have always tried to steer folks towards the older 650 twins, they are more than powerful enough to keep someone entertained for a few years, but are still forgiving enough that you can screw up a little and still maintain composure, while at teh same time not screwing up a 10k bike because you flung it off the side of a mountain
