If you're looking for cheap(ish) n cheerful then a DR-Z400SM is a good option - you can pick up a 2005 bike in VGC with low miles for c. £2400, and there's lots for sale/plenty of spares around.
The problem with small singles is that they don't have a lot of puff - however round town/off road that's not really a problem. Incidentally you can stick a set of dirt wheels on the SM version for when you want to take it off-road. Then if you get into it properly you can always sell the DRZ on and trade up |

Definately recommend the DR-Z400SM. I've had a converted DR-Z400 for 5 years and it's just about the best bike I've had for getting around town/city traffic....and nothing's fallen off!!!! Be prepared to replace the chain/tyres on a regular basis as they eat them...

get a CR500 and put some 17" road wheels on it, that'll keep anybody entertained on the way to work
