bmw did have a 450 as well - tho I think they cancelled it
it was too tall for my damn short legs anyways; but a great demo
yes somewhere there is me standing on a milk crate to get on the damn thing.

The Royal Enfield has some nice UJM lego building blocks, I just don't trust the motor for performance or the electrical for reliablity..... but I do like the style of the variants

XR650L gets my vote or a KTM 625 SMC with kick and electric start. But if we could not get gas then it would not matter.

My vote is for the Suzuki DR-Z400S

http://www.suzukicycles.com/Product%20Lines/Cycles /Products/DR-Z400/2012/DRZ400S.aspx

Small and agile enough to go anywhere. Powerful enough to get out of dodge in a hurry, if necessary.

These are good candidates, too:



I've always thought an XL1200 based street tracker would be awesome (built on an honest flat track frame), but the cost ends up a bit prohibitive.
