learning motorbikes

the best model of a suzuki or yamaha motorbike, when i start my new jobs i am going to start learning to ride?
i can’t afford a car and i want to of stopped using the bus with the next wight months. buses are unreliable in my town and i can’t risk being late for work bcoz of a late or brokendown bus. this has happened in the past and i’ve been sacked cos of it
Why limit yourself to Suzuki and Yamaha? If reliability is a big thing for you, you are never – ever – going to beat Honda, and their build quality is better than anyone else’s.
As a learner, you have to do a day’s CBT training (around £100) before you can ride legally on the roads. Once you’ve done CBT, you can get a bike of upto 125cc, and Honda do them in all styles; traditional (CG125), trailie (Varadero), sports (CBR125), cruiser (Shadow) and supermoto (XR125L).
I had the Varadero until I took my test, and it was a great bike; 80-90mpg, cheap to insure, fantastic ride and it looked like a much bigger bike. Loads of people thought it must have been a 500-600cc bike.
People might try and tempt you with fancy 2-stroke exotica such as Aprilia sports bikes but take it from me; for what you want, a 4-stroke Honda fits the bill perfectly.
BTW, the person who said that bikes cost more to run than cars is wrong; everything about bikes is cheaper – servicing, fuelling, replacement parts.
