greetings to one and all i have just purchased my first big bike after passing my mod 2 test and lo what do i get but a 1991 pre diversion xj600, what a beast of a bike it is. however very heavy , does not like corners and so many issues with it i have decided not to ride it at all but strip it down completely and rebuild it from scratch lol so here i have a bike that works but very poorly so rather than run it into the round which i could do i have decided to use it to further my knowledge of bikes which is not extensive. but i do have a few friends who are practically experts to help me out. of course that does mean i will need to get a bike for me to use in the mean time until xj600 is back on the road i need advice as to what bike is a good bike to get budget £2000 i think will do. of course i do want a yamaha so guys what do ya suggest?
