Thinking of a v strom 650
Looks a good all rounder and a good mix of comfort speed and reliability
The bike that will do everything but excite. Owned every incarnation but the latest and couldn't fault any of them (except maybe the usual Suzuki furring)

Regret selling and would still own one but even the 650 hard for me to swing a leg over now

not ridden one although did have a sv650 for a short while
rode my dads cb500x which i think would be ideal bike if it had 67 bhp instead of 47 !

SV also awesome but I found to much lean on the wrists as I aged :shock:
