You need to be a little more specific about your needs. As a Motorway mile muncher these bikes are not the ideal choice, as a RTW (Round The World) choice of steed they are well suited, or with a tyre change they make great Green Lane bikes.

On single, twisties they will out perform all but the most spirited sportsbikes, even from a standing start they are bloody quick, all the way to 30 or 40mph!! They top out at 60/70 but you can change the final drive to give you more top end, although the lower end will loose out.

The fuel tank is pittyfull, at 7 litres before you hit reserve you have around 110Km's before reaching for the tap (Oh yes, and they are in Kilometers, not miles!), although for around £200 you can chuck an Acerbis long range tank on the bike.

They are awesum fun and alway return a smile, and they hold thier value very well (a 2005 model will still return £2500 in good nick, or around £2k for a 'used' bike) and are pretty much bulletproof, hense the good choice for RTW.
