    Smile Wanted:400-600cc sports/tourer - stepping up from Restricted

    Hi

    I sold my TZR250 before leaving Wellington in May of this year and arrive back next month (flat hunt/bike etc) and am hoping to get something bigger now on the full licence. As stepping up would like something that I can control after sewing machine on steroids engine of the TZR, i.e. this will be my first 'big' bike

    After 400-600cc ish engine size. And open to recommendations from other Bikers on what to go for and what to avoid. Scratch that - test rode 400 and now looking for 500cc +

    + If the KiwiBiker is reading who shipped over the black TZR250 from Blenheim the other year.. Big thanks.. Bike did me great for 2 years and was still going well when I sold it

    Cheers

    Matt

    You know you want it.

    It's a sweetheart to ride with no discernible vices and you can noodle about on it or go mental. The choice is yours.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    Looks like a well maintained machine with some worthwhile extras.

    If you are after touring... the Z750 above would provide the power you might find lacking in a 400cc machine.
