After a few weeks of promises, we're finally getting a garage at our flat so I want another motorbike. Hadn't ridden for a few years but did a refresher a couple of weeks ago and then a few test rides of the usual low seated retros.

I had intended to get a bonneville, but then sense sort of kicked in so I've decided to get a different naked for a year, get used to riding again and then go for something I'm a more desirous of a bit later. BMW RnineT is one I keep drooling over lately.

Question is what to get....

I'd like to spend under £4,500, naked bike, c.75bhp or less, relatively low seat (under 800mm due to being a short short man), decent handling, nothing ancient and preferably should be Japanese due to maintenance costs. Not sure about ABS either.

What would you chaps recommend based on experience?

Cheers!
