Re: Suggest me a commuter tourer
Deauville is slow though.
And I wouln't use it for commuting, too wide for filtering. |

Re: Suggest me a commuter tourer
Point taken, forgot what we were asked to recommend here..
Has got a stereo though And the built in panniers are a bonus.. Definately a realiable, comfy, mile cruching tourer.. And commuter if need be! |

Bandit 1250 deffo.
650 is ok, but is nice to have the extra umph of of the bigger engine. Plain, simple, easy to ride for what you need it for. Big tank (200+ miles odd) and cheap and easy to maintain. Good turning circle. Then save for a nice 2nd bike. |

Re: Suggest me a commuter tourer
I'd say 1250 Bandit if you want a mile muncher / commuter, I had huge fun on the one I rode a while ago. If I was in the market for a commuter thats what I'd get.

Re: Suggest me a commuter tourer
Its a good answer!
How about a FZR 1000, stick some luggage on it and it should do the job nicely.

ZZR1100 - A friend picked one up the other day for under 2k, has got a few miles on it but very well looked after. Seriously fast, comfortable for cruising, not too bulky, bullet proof engines
