Definitely go green if you can, it'll be easier to sell on when you realise that you should have got an ER6 as a sole bike. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

You could not pay me to ride an ER6 as a sole bike. When I sell my Brutale, it'll almost certainly be for another 130+hp European naked.
I have use of my GF's ER6f. Very hard to get anywhere near 70mpg the way I ride, which I could expect to exceed on the SH. Would also like to avoid refuelling as often.
Another reason to get a low-powered bike is to reduce the top speed. On the Brutale, I'm racing the train. Keeping top speed under 90 would be a bonus. ____________________ Bikes: S1000R, SH350; Exes: Vity 125, PS125, YBR125, ER6f, VFR800, Brutale 920, CB600F, SH300x4

I've got a very tatty looking 2007 CBF500 (been on its side, been badly repainted a sort of satin black), in a line of bikes it looks the least appealing.
I'd say any tatty no-thrills commuter like that would probably tick the most boxes. ____________________ '07 Honda CBF500 / '93 Vauxhall Astra (www.fb.com/2wdOffRoader) / '04 Vauxhall Movano
