See above post regarding my thoughts on second hand bikes

I like my VTR...quite a lot...however now that I've had the bike 6 months I fancy something a bit gruntier. Around town and through twisties it's ideal. I rode mine all the way back from Taupo with no ill efects - it will sit happily on the motorway between 120 and 140 kph. A great bike to learn on - you'll probably lose about $600 (depreciation) per year on it.
