    Support Best second learner Bike?

    Hi all so i have been riding my 2014 Honda CRF250L Dual sport for the last 4 months since i got my learner licence and im keen to get onto something more sportier with a bigger engine. So far ive narrowed it down to an mt-07, cb500f/cb500r or a ninja 650. Does anyone have any other recommendations? (max budget around 6,500-7,000)
    Cheers.

    Well I couldn't find an add for a CR500. Heres the nearest thing.

    Loved my SV650s as my first and second learner bikes. Love my mt-09 now, probably should have tried a 7 before I bought the second sv.
    Sat on but never rode a z650, that was probably also a go. Also tried a couple of little Ninjas (300 and 400, IIRC) which were fun.
    Borrowed a Duke 390 which was awesome fun, but not my idea of a great bike for highway riding, of which I do several hours a week. If I'd only wanted to do town stuff and the odd fun weekend, it would have been ideal.
