only been riding since august when i passed my CBT, (bear in mind i am a tall 6 '4" heavy 16 stone guy now please) bought a hyosung GV125 heard they could handle my belly and had enough leg room, not too fast so that i would start acting like a loony tune and all was well, but i got bored didnt see much of a down side to a cruiser till i upgraded to a Derbi Terra ( nice bike, tall and quite some oomph for a 4 stroke.....remember i am still a noob) but have been reading reviews and insurance on bikes as to move onto when i get the kerching to pay for my DAS
shortlist is either a Thundercat or Bandit....
any views on either of these bikes or any others
should have about 1500 to spend
i will be riding them pretty much all the time because i hate driving

If you're looking at the Thundercat then the CBR600F has to be a decent shout as well.

reasonabe difference between the two bikes in terms of riding position, the T'cat is a little more of a sporty position than the bandit - so would be best if you told us the type of riding you mostly do.
