Hi guys, newbie here. Just wanted to say I finally registered after skimming threads for a long time, and hope to enjoy this forum even more now 🙂

Im in abit of a dilemma…lets put it this way….im A2 licence (35kw max), been on the bike for almost a year now, will have around 6k cash to spend on an upgrade bike from my 125 vara in the next month or so.

Im stuck for choices.

What do? I was looking at likes of Kawasaki z300, Yamaha mt-03, straight from the dealer, which is quite expensive, but ill know everything wrong with the bike being the first owner.

Or a restricted second hand bike (still dont know what to look for though)…which would be abit of a gamble, and maybe a fixer upper….but cheaper.

Been riding a baby vara for almost a year now, but since starting a new job, need something for a daily motorway commute….and varas 115km top speed isnt doing me any favours :unsure2:

My vara is redlining at barely 100km :biggrin_old: so looking for something with a higher top speed, but, what matters to me is reliability….need a bullet proof bike for everyday commutes.

Must be a naked style bike with a straight sitting position.

If youve any opinions, or suggestions, please share….im completely in the dark here.

Really appreciate it,

P1
