He wanted something that wouldn't kill his back. I posted the first thing that came into my head.

A bandit 1250.
A GSX 1400.
A speed 4.
An old tiger.

I've drawn a blank on upright bikes.

Id go for the vfr800fi pre vtec.

Seriously thinking about getting one myself. Apparently the early vtec engines arent very smooth on the changeover at 7k revs.

The other bike im thinking of is a vtr1000 firestorm. Although the crappy tank range on the pre 2001 models is something to avoid for me.

Or the prettier 750 VFR. Circa '97.

This is true, for the 2009 model they refined it and mine is much smoother, it's hardly noticeable unless you're really caining it
