HELP new bike choice...

[Lewis1196]

Looking for your advice I’m torn between 3 bikes I’m hearing good and bad about all 3!! I’m stuck to 47bhp as I only hold a A2 licence.

so what’s your opinions have you had any history with each of the bikes or had friends that have owned any of them... any help will be appreciated?

KTM 640 LC4 SUPERMOTO priced @ £3490 with 7000 miles on the clock.
(Will need to restrict from 52bhp to 47bhp)

HONDA FMX 650 SUPERMOTO priced @ £3290 with 7300 mile on the clock.


CCM 404 DS R35 SUPERMOTO priced @ £2990 with 10188 miles on the clock.

Been to view the CCM today but not very keen on styling compared to the KTM.

Thanks for any of your help or advice in advance!!

Mrs has a ktm duke 390 (the new one),think that’s on cusp with law ? It’s propper laugh out load fun and with narrow tyres turns in corners super quick.

Can’t de restrict in years to come as they are what they are, however propper cheap

As has been already said, duke 390 are already compliant. Look at a 2017 onwards. More fun than a barrel of monkeys.

I looked into A2 bikes, settled on the 390 Duke as it has a great dash, ABS, super light and chuckable.

For the price I don't think there's a better A2 out there. I'd course you could restrict a 650 or similar, but that's a pricier proposition.

I've not checked Duke 390 prices, but seems there are some new 2018 Husqvarna 401 Vitpilen version of the Duke 390 out there for £4,000
