The thought of needing to trade up shortly after buying a first bike is a positive not a negative. Let her be the judge but there is no reason NOT to buy a 250 and then move up a size or two in six months or so. Money for this is cheap. Getting in over her head could be a very serious mistake. We tend to forget but it can be challenging enough for a new rider why add to it. Spend the couple bucks to do it safely. Buy her a nice used 250 for $2500 and if you loose $500 on it be happy for it. If you get her a larger bike and it goes down for her you at the very least will spend three or four time that money if no injuries.
