So I've lasted about 6 months without a bike, the sun comes out and I'm back to hankering after another bike  :moto:

Don't want to spend loads as it'll be sat in the garage for a lot of the time. But what to buy?

What's a good second hand bike? Naked preferably, or something comfy without it being massive (size wise), don't want a sports bike, doesn't have to be a 1000cc, but needs to be lots of fun

A Street Triple of any vintage...as long as it's in good condition....cheap enough to not cost the earth...enough performance to suit novice through to experience...you would never tire.

hard to beat a street triple I would have thought Foo. What's your budget?

7550

Z900, Z900RS, Street triple, MT07.

Street Triple, you know it's the right answer  :azn:

Lord Danoir the first

cheap road bike. ZX9R

you're welcome

Just looking at the street triple, I could get a 765, for the same price I sold my 675 for.

Or a cb1000r is looking good too, although if I remember rightly they are a tad heavy

ZX1000 SX.

Plenty of fun, but more capable for a long day out.

Not sure what your budget is?
