Million miles to the tank, comfy and well protected from that nasty wind, rain and snow. It has built in crash bars that are better than any crash bung.

DT125 would be my choice for summat that is cheap, superb to ride, looks good and will survive the winter well. Looking for one myself as i've decided on a new Versys but no point in buying a brand spanker with winter approaching so need something to tide me over.

I think 1.2 million miles is too many.
