I commute in on the m40 (but only from junction 3) into London but then as I teach yoga do have a few different journeys within the city - so around 70 ish miles round trip. My v workhorse Yamaha xjs diversion is an ‘11 plate but after doing over 100,000 miles! Has decided to bite the dust ( think the mechanic at the dealership is keen on me buying a new bike / said it was just going to cost too much as needed new cdi, sort out steering bearings etc) so - Any suggestions? Am thinking either the Yamaha tracer or Honda NC700x? Reliable, cheap to run, good for filtering etc.... am unsure whether to just get a new bike on finance or go 2nd hand which works out better? (Besides hassle of getting big cash together and going to god knows where to pick it up) - Any thoughts or suggestions v welcome!
