    A CB 750 for $1200. In Rotorua. Worth a look?

    Then, with all due respect, why are you dribbling on about getting a licence exemption?

    A Divvy 600 is about as softcore as a 'properly sized' bike gets. If you can't be sensible on one of those, you can't be sensible on anything.

    Started thinking the same... A 750 is a 750. It weighs close to double of a 250. It has much more torque, you take a handful and things happen.

    If you are not ready, then you are not ready. Only you will know.

    But would hate to have recommended you a bike, you go and buy it, and a week later there is a RIP thread on here...
