Not much decent
£2.5 buys you my nice WR400
£2k might get you a DRZ400, great bikes, but you need to be REALLY tall to ride them, they aren't the fastest in the world and you'd struggle to get one at that price.
With a £2k budget don't buy anything that isn't already supermoto'ed, talon/excel etc wheels cost £500+ alone, then you need brake discs, caliper bracket and tyres.
You'd get an older XR650 for that money, good bikes if you like pink girlie bikes anyway.
For £2k you would easily get the likes of DR600/650, XR600 etc... but they are a different league to the competition bikes, i.e. EXC, WR, husabergs etc.
KTM LC4 is well out of your league, double your budget and you'd get one, insurance and restriction would be expensive though.
As far as I know, most supermotos do not have restrictor kits available so you'd need to take it to a suitable dyno shop for them to restrict it themselves, then dyno it until they reach 33bhp maximum power.
