Something seems to be screaming "SPAMMER" at me

Befor you rush into buying a trailie style machine take her around a few bike shops & let her try sitting on a variety of machines.

So that's where BMW got their idea for the C1

Have a look at the Suzuki SV650N & Kawasaki ER6N.

The training school I work for uses GS500's, CB500's & ER5's. If your looking at setting up your own training school you may want to take a good hard look at the 3rd EU Directive due in 2013 when DAS bikes have to be over 600cc . (Unless somebody gets some guts & tells the EU to bogoff) We'r...
