I'm doing my theory test shortly then booking in for DAS assuming I pass wink

I'll be looking to get a bike over xmas and i will NEED to use it for the odd commute, my daily run is a 150 miles round trip.

What are my options?

I like sports bikes but i can't see anything that is going to deliver the 55mpg + i need.. it's a dual carriageway and mway run so it's pretty economical in the car, about 55mpg in our vectra diesel

i've looked at the Suzuki Bandit 600 which a lot of people say is a good first bike.. budget i guess upto 3k, want something reliable as it'll be car backup/alternative

any thoughts?

some useful thoughts there.. i'll mull em over

i don't want a 125.. i'll just take the slapper wink

I've always fancied a Ducati.. it won't get regular commute use, just needs to be able to do it occasionally.. maybe i'll forego the mpg but then if i wanted to use it often i'd be bankrupt biggrin
