Cheers simmo,
He's back from Thailand and we've had another shop around. He's put a deposit down on an ex demo 2013 BMW F800R with 1500K on the clock and finance is underway. It's an upright inline water cooled twin and the fuel tank is under the seat to keep the weight low, so it should be fine in traffic. He said it outclassed all of the jap bikes he has test ridden. $12,490 + about $400 for stamp duty and to transfer the rego.
Now we can start our own little BMW cub
