I don't commute on the bike at the moment due to space issues at my new place.
That said I work in a place, where I could be working or just visiting. ____________________ My Flickr |

Lol, the suzuki DR is a terrible bike...
It looks like it can go off road even though it cant. Its actually slower flat out than a YBR. Doesnt look all that great, sounds terrible, realy overpriced.
Honestly wouldnt bother, for those premiums i'd be wanting this;

Top end rebuild every 5,000 miles is a bit ghey, but ffs LOOK AT IT!!
(i nearly took finance out on one of theese...)
They do make a 4t version.
Or consider ye olde DT125 in supermoto trim? More reliable, a bit slower than the husky...but twas my 2nd choice.

I actually vewed a derbi senda DRD pro knowing i needed a 4t engine...but it'd been badly mistreated & was well overpriced. Real nice looking though;
https://www.derbi.com/uk/images/stories/motos/supermotard/senda_drd_125_SM/1DRD125SM_01H_WH_acc.jpg
And then did the sensible thing & bought a mint six month old YBR with 3k on the clock & a full factory warranty for less than half the price of the first two, and £300 cheaper than the used derbi...havent regretted it tbh. Passed test & insured a GS500 for £400, now with my 1yrs NCB about to insure a bandit 600 for £270.
But definately, dont go for the suzuki. Have seen em overtaken by de-restricted mopeds.  ____________________ Please be aware that the above post may be full of complete nonsense.

SDPC for me - can't believe it adds £800 for the OP!
Got to add business to mine in the next couple of weeks, can't wait for the admin fees on that one Although, new work really should pay for that thinking about it... ____________________ 'Allo! My name is Inigo Montoya, you killed my father, prepare to die!

I add commuting because it costs me so little that it's literally not worth my time trying to game the system.
If it was a significant cost though, I'd likely "forget" to add it. In the vanishingly unlikely event that it becomes an issue, it would be perfectly truthful to say that I was on a pleasure ride, because riding is always a pleasure. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.
