anthonyp Posted August 25, 2016 Posted August 25, 2016 Passed my Module 2 yesterday now I have the difficult decision on what bike to get. I like the naked style bikes about 6 or 7 years old. What's people's opinion? Quote
JRH Posted August 26, 2016 Posted August 26, 2016 Well done on passing Can't help on the bike front, personally I prefer a fairing Quote
Hoggs Posted August 26, 2016 Posted August 26, 2016 Congrats on the pass! Ooh well I'm going to say ER6N just because I love Kwaks But as a sensible option go sit on as many as you can depending on height and build you may find one that feels much comfier than others. Budget is a factor - you'll be able to pick up old Suzukis generally cheaper than Hondas/Yammys/Kwaks (and Ducati but they are always more expensive!). Have a trawl on ebay see whats available in your area always a good way of getting ideas keep up updated with what you go for! Quote
tPIC Posted August 26, 2016 Posted August 26, 2016 Congrats! You could consider a Triumph Street Triple. Long been considered one of the best middleweight nakeds. Quote
klingelton Posted August 26, 2016 Posted August 26, 2016 2007 street triples go for around the 3k mark and are worth every penny. My instructor called it the unicycle because he went everywhere on 1 wheel.er6n is a very forgiving first bike.as said, an older bandit 650 will be around the 2/2.5k mark for a tidy one.For me, i'd be looking at the triumph though - i still am!

staningrimsby Posted August 26, 2016 Posted August 26, 2016 Personally mate think of a naked bike you like then look into the pros and cons of it and see if its right for you everyone will have any opinion on what they do and dont like but that doesnt mean thats what you think.For me I dont like naked bikes but thats my choice, go with what feels good to you fella but test ride as many as you can first.

bonio Posted August 26, 2016 Posted August 26, 2016 Well done mate Oooh new bike time. Very exciting. Can't advise you on nakeds, though... I like being able to stretch out and put the kettle on for a cuppa when I'm hooning down the motorway Quote
Hoggs Posted August 26, 2016 Posted August 26, 2016 but thats my choice.Ooh excellent choice of bike you have there sir Quote
