Believe it or not, if you're in town/city, a mid sized trailie like like an XT600 makes a great commuting machine: thin for filtering, torquey for traffic light grand prix, high-ish seat for good visibility, and they are a bit more damage resistant in minor scrapes than many others. Sadly less good for top speed antics on a sunday blast, but perhaps worth considering short term 'til your 33bhp time ends?

Alternatively, as mentioned by another, think about about older 600s e.g. early CBRs, FZR600, Thundercat, GPZ/GPX600. Or, less cool perhaps, the XJ600 or later Diversion are reasonable machines. If you buy carefully you can get a lot of bike for your money.

Cheers I will have a look at the Bigger enduros but still want something that i can go out on at weekends really.
