I've been searching for a spare fun runaround bike to join my bagger in the garage but I'm having trouble deciding what bike I want. It doesn't need bags, I have to like how it looks, not an SS.
Age isn't a factor as long as I can find parts and fuel range doesn't matter. V-twin would be a plus.
I would love a Yamaha MT-01 but owners are asking too much. I'm putting a price limit of $4000 on it.
I've considered:
Bandit 1200/1250 - looks kinda ugly
VTR1000/Firestorm/Firehawk - Sounds awesome but looks ugly.
SV1000S - Can't find a non-S version, sounds awesome, decent looks, kinda meh on personality.
CB900F/Hornet - like the big naked idea but not loving the looks of the Honda.
Buell 1125CR - like the oddball unique style, electrical gremlins and little parts support worries me.
Anyone want to chime in on one of these options or something else to consider.
