How about a Suzuki Sv650s, fully faired
Great pull due to being a v-twin, top end isn't great, but certainly pulls well
Should be very cheap insurance too
Mine would pull an indicated 130+, so it's not up there with 600 sports bikes but far from slow.Great pull due to being a v-twin, top end isn't great, but certainly pulls well

Sounds like too much work :P
There are decent ones to be had for cheap, mine is completely standard with the exception of heated grip and a front fender extender and steel downpipes, previous owner had it for 12 and half years. In some cases looking through the history it only did 8 miles a year to and from the garage for a service and MOT. I picked this up for £1490.Bargains to be had.
I have to hold back now. The owner of the apartment block has said I can't use the bike shed as it's for bicycles.
No bikes ever go in it but it would be a fire hazard if there was a pile up of leaves...
I asked if I could lock it outside of the shed to the fence. I'm not allowed as it's still a fire risk and could damage the paint on the fence.
They said I could get a ground anchor if I got planning permission off them (Which I won't) and I would be liable if anyone tripped over it. I would not be there long enough to gain from it.
Looks like I have to wait until June now

Sounds like you've hit a real brick wall there. I had a look at that R6 you posted in M&S today. It looks clean enough but it needs the array of stickers removed. They also have a nice Pan Euro there. The colour on the Pan is dreadful, but it looks in good shape.
Could you link please. I don't know which one you are talking about.We are going to move after our tenancy is over. Find a house with a garage and then I can put a floor anchor in.

This is the R6 I was talking about, from your post this morning.
This is the Pan Euro I was looking at. The colour is dire, and that would be enough to put me off but I do love these bikes. Although I really want an 'all rounder' bike which a tourer is not, I am still drawn to tourers.

Way out of my price range and as you said, the colour is horrid. I also wouldn't like that bike falling on meThis is the R6 I was talking about, from your post this morning.
