    Hi guys.

    This nice weather is giving me the bug again. And im meant to be saving for a house. But i could spare a little bit

    Is it unrealistic to expect something semi decent for a grand or under?

    Thinking about a streetfighter or something. Wont really be used much but must be able to take 2 people and don't want v twin.

    What would you do?

    Thanks Zach

    I'd get on Ebay and look for something like a 600 Bandit or Yamaha Diversion. You should find a few for £1,000 and under

    Should be able to dig up a half decent CBR or FZR old is not so bad if its been looked after, normally the older they are the more trick parts have already been fitted

    If you have a bike in mind it might be worth going on the owners forums for that bike. I am on triumph RAT and there are a few deals to be had every now and then.
    When it's your time to go it's your time, so don't let it catch you.
