Good Learner Bikes???
I know someone who is thinking of taking thier bike test. I was amazed to hear that they have thier eye on a GSF 1200, and having never riden a bike before i think is a bit of a rash decision.
So i gather the SV is supposedly a good starter bike and also 'gentle' to learner riders. But what other makes and models of 'bigger than 125' bikes are generally good for people with little experience of riding???

Re: Good Learner Bikes???
GS500s are pretty dire, don't bother. Spend a couple of hundred more and buy an SV
