    ax100, cheap, easy to ride, cheap, and you can bucket after. Oh and they are cheap, you can get one for under a grand leaving you with three more for your big bike.

    Rent something, unless you want to keep the 250 or less for other purposes.

    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    It's an upper limit, not a target

    not a bad suggestion if you're keen to give a two-stroker a go

    How long til your full? If it isn't long see if there is a 250 floating around that you can borrow until then...

    Bit of a waste of effort to buy something only to sell it again in a month or 2...
