I'm currently looking at getting the cheapest, shittiest pile of crap as a commuter and my only conditions are:
Uber cheap, uber simple (I already have a bike that's fast and needs work ) and cheap to fix.
What it has to do; take me to Te Puke from the Mnawatu and I don't care if I do 90 the whole way...it'll be cheap
So, I'm left with a short list...
Shitheap GN250/125s, they're all overpriced!
Honda GL145s (because I can't afford a tiny CB twin...)
Ax100s and what not.
Specific info of any use on the AX and GL would be nice, I've had plenty of GN experiences, I had a chinese one for 11,000k and it was crap, the early Jap ones are on the list.
In my mind GN = good, parts are stupidly cheap ($140nz for piston/barrel, under $50 for a gasket set blah blah)
I can't dig up much on the GL except people do an XR head conversion
I know nothing about the AX
Any other small, simple, sub $1k shitheaps I'm missing?
