See if you can find a decent CB1000/1300 mate. They've got the riding position you need, and at least you'll be familiar with the motor. :Up

I hope you find something with a better riding position to replace her with Karlo. :)

Nowt wrong with a cruiser as long as there's not too much chrome & tassels on it :D

Yes then Karlo can start looking for his next bike a GSX1400 that would suit him perfectly :Up When I was looking at CBR1000's earlier this year they were in the 2K+ region for a good one unless it was the earlier shape.

An early half-faired Bandit 1200 might fit the bill, less likely to have been 'stunted' than the unfaired ones. 2 grand should get you a usable one. If the position isn't upright enough then try fitting Renthals, they come in a variety of widths and pullback.
