There is another path to full enlightenment, the realm of naked/muscle bikes.

Be it ZRX, Bandit, XJR1300, GSX1400, etc,etc, even the Fazer 1000. All day comfort and lots of power and torque.

There is a third way to true motorcycle nirvana.

Don't do it! Clunks suggestions are good as are the 4th way - BIG TRAILIES. Power, agility, comfort, wind protection, the list goes on............. You will never go back, and you don't need cookies or Mike Tyson neck muscles for 80+.

Nice suggestion Greg...but...

When I left the Army, my first job was a trials instructor...
So I would be seriously tempted to go off road...and probably knacker my back up completely.............or die :shock:

Clunks idea of a muscle bike is tempting, I used to have an old Kwacker GT 750 (shaft drive) that was comfy... :oops:

My biggest worry of getting a cruiser is...........nodding off on the road :wink:

Riding behind the 125 was a breath of fresh (2 stroke) air, it also meant I could treat mine gently and keep to the mildly irritating sub 6500rpm running in thingmy. Once the lanes get tight its very hard to try and corner at the same mid corner speed and on as tight a line as a well ridden 125 - makes me realise how lazy/poor my cornering technique has got - way to easy to cheat on big bikes and just go in slow and come out fast.

funny but of all the bikes at the meet the one I really would have loved to have had a go on was the knackered RS125 Id have tried to blag a go but im not brave enough to hand you the keys to a few mile old K6 thou :wink:

Now come on, admit it. You were eyeing up Keith's cruiser thinking "I wonder if I can clutch-up a wheelie in 2nd gear on that" :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
