Am after a bike to ride in winter that needs less tlc than a WC GS, is easy to pickup and that I can have my 1st ventures on green lanes.
Question what bike?
i'm 6'4 and lanky git - 12.5 stone.
I don;t want a bike which needs an oil change every x hours or anything for wheelies/getting air etc, just to bimble around in winter on. Lecky start, 4 stroke.
So far I have been drawn to a honda crf250L but folks seem keen to also talk about Yamaha WR250R. Have had Honda road bikes before so like the build quality.
Thoughts / suggestions please?
TIA
p.s. done loads of mountain biking but not ridden off tarmac before.
