Honda FMX

It's not fast, think it is similar power to the DRZ400SM (it does have more torque). The SM has better suspension too.

If you are seriously looking for one to be your only motorcycle, test ride them both, but if you are just looking for a fun buy get the suzuki, it is better all round for fun.

We had three nicked from the showroom at work within a week of first getting them in a while go.

They are somewhat tall - but balance and handle well so once you are on the move they're great fun... good job they're also very responsive at slow speed too.

So they are more nickable than the SV???

If you think its a real supermoto think again,

its ideally name as its called a funmoto, its a half arsed attempt using parts bin bits....

Gutless, cheap and nasty parts with resale values out the window... But will be bought by someone who cant be bothered to do any research on supermotos but like the look of them...

I'm not saying its total crap but its the GS500 of the sports bike world in supermoto terms. Theres plenty more nicer better spec bikes at a lot less money that will make you grin rather than goan when you realise what you have bought

Anyway, that said... it will suit some people who like to 'try' and look the part but only potter about

Thats a good place to check out supermotos if thats what your after. Jjust dont take it personal if everyone ****es there pants at your FMX questions.

I rode one a while back, my neighbour owned it for a short while. It couldn't pull the knob off a chocolate mouse...

Oh - so the FMX is no good then. What is the best supermoto style bike then, bearing in mind i'm only 5'8"?
