suzuki DRZ 400sm
1 hell of a bike
comfy, quick and a supermoto
or the 600 if you opt for more power
or the crf450f supermoto style
VFR400?(nc30)
still look good and handle amazingly!

Cant see you getting a supermoto for under a grand. CR-F's fetech 1500 upwards. DR-Z...have heard in SM trim they are gash. Keep them to the green lanes!
Your budget restricts your choice TBH.

i paid £1750 for my crf450r supermoto, but it sold for £2395. For a grand i would go 1200 bandit mate. I have seen old ktm duke for around £1200 tho... look a bit ****, but go well...... same money would get a early tatty ish blade.....

^ For under a grand?
ok if my budget is restricting then advise me according to it lol, the vrf400 looks wicked.
and my mate has a dr350 they look cool.

SV650, i had one as my first bike, loved it. V twin roar! VFR 400, nearly bought one instead of the SV. Nice looking bike and sound great on full chat! Both can be picked up for £1200+

sv will be cheaper to insure than a VFR. Import and a sports bike. Ebay FTW. I sold my smashed up one on there. Loads to choose from.
i have just gone closest to my house now lol
anybody know any history on this model. and check out his description!!!!!!
