Picked up "my first big bike" tonight in readiness for when I pass my tests
It's a kawasaki versys Mk2 2011 in black, it's done a few miles but I got it cheap and it seems to be in good condition. For a first bike( that I may drop, I have history lol) I think it will be ok.
Heated grips too, they are bloody great  ____________________ Tomorrows another day .just as we'll at my age |

I'm getting more and more frustrated when people post up pics of bikes they've just bought. I WANT ANOTHER BIKE! But the Street Triple idea of mine seems to have gone on hold for a bit. I keep thinking, well, I'm not riding the bike I have got much at the moment, mostly cos winter, so why buy now just to have it stuck in the garage for a few months? Yes, very frustrating
Congrats on yours though, time to get the ACF50 out! ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

A 70/30 case didn't affect my insurance all that much if I recall correctly. And that was Broxbourne, on the edge of London. Have you tried a few quotes on anything you'd prefer? ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

Insurance has doubled on a MT-03 for example, and 125's are back to what I paid for my first year (around £350ish). That's also assuming I keep my NCD, still need to get that clarified but I'm scared to ring up MCE as I don't think my policy should still be running  ____________________ Yamaha MT-03 '08 (crashed)

Nice looking bike, I prefer the look of them with the Kawasaki (givi) Panniers
on them as well though, gives them a bit more presence IMO.
Like this one

I'm starting to wish I'd bought a Versys as a first bike.
Even at a meagre 5'11 with a 32" inside leg I've found the ER6 a bit cramped.
No matter, I'll get something different next season. ____________________ Currently enjoying products from Ford, Mazda and Yamaha
