Hey guys,
I've put on a hundred pounds since i last rode, and getting back into the hobby this season.
So i tip the scales at 415.... I am mainly looking for a bike that i can bob (eventually)
My main concerns right now are cost/availability
I would go with a Rebel 250, but I doubt i could ever ride it on highway.
I considered a shadow 600 vlx, but am worried it too might have issues, with the 4 speed transmission.
Any reccomendations? low CC's are a must, since i am considered a new rider again after letting my license laps
anything over a 500 might be a little too steep insurance wise. If i wasn't sucha fat bastard I'd be going for a rebel right away.
Main use for the bike will be commuting, and occasional rides on old highways (no 400 sereies for Ontario guys)
Thanks in advance everyone!
