Fowler's good for a window shop as a lot of choice, probably buy mine 'nearly new' anyway, depending on price. Aprilia Shiver a beautiful bike, but could only get balls of feet on ground and would prefer my full foot! Don't think that could be adapted, could be restricted! Also the Yamaha Diversion comfy (similar to my yam ybr 125).

Off to Kawasaki dealer and Ducati in Bristol this week, may travel to George White's in Swindon too (if really adventurous, Bicester). So Cwmbran not too far, shall give it a go. Newport Superbikes great too! Guess there's always Thunder Road. So much choice!! Day trips, what excitement!  :clap

Can't get my whole foot on the ground, but am comfortable with my bike  :thumbsup
Don't think I could on any of the bikes  :roll_eyes not being the tallest  :rofl  :rofl  :rofl  :rofl  :rofl
Good hunting  :tup2 and have safe fun with your new bike when you get it  :tup2
Bikes don't leak oil',.... they mark their territory :o)           Sometimes it takes a whole tankful of fuel before you can think straight. Growing old is manditory... but growing up...well that my friends...is OPTIONAL!

I ride the new yamaha xj6 diversion, tiz a top bike, had it for a year and a bit and still in love with it.

Gentle enough around town, but get the revs up above 6k and it'll go :)

Enjoy the window shopping!

Try the Kawasaki er6 as well very nice litte bike had mine coming up to a year and it was my first bike after passing my test

quite a low seat hight and very power friendly and a very nice growl to it as well

and check out GT superbikes for kawasaki as i got mine from there and they do some good deals

Thanks for all the advice guys. Bought myself a rather nice Xmas pressy! Decided to stay small for 2 years whilst restricted then sell and shop around again (better for my confidence). Had a good deal on Ninja 250 Oct 11 white special edition, being delivered from Ipswich in January - can't wait :)
