Just passed mod 2 & now have my full cat A licence!!

Now to get rid of my CBF125 and get something big! Will hopefully sell/part ex it for a fair bit, it's only done 5k. Looks like I could get about £1500 for it private sale? Anyone have any idea how much I might get for it part ex?

Quite like these:

Honda Hornet
Kawasaki ER-6
Triumph Speed Triple
Suzuki SV650

Any recommendations?

Thanks

Congratulations on passing

you would get less if you part exchanged it than you would if sold privately,how much idk,they would go off list prices

the er6 is a nice smart machine,but im a kawasaki fanboy

Thanks

Main reason for the ER-6 is I learnt on an oldish ER-5 and really enjoyed it. My instructor used their newer ER-6 & I loved it!

I'm not too worried about getting a little less for trade in as it saves a lot of hassle rather than selling it privately, but it it's the difference between e.g. £1000 or £1500 then I'll definitely try sell private.

Hmm, too many amazingly nice bikes to choose from! . I have always liked the ZX6R, but not sure if it'll be a bit too sporty? The bike I do eventually get will likely be used every day for getting to work.

I'm 21, 1 year ncb on my 125 and have had my car licence for about 4 years now.

Congratulations.

If you like four different bikes then you will be best off test riding them as its not just about the looks... or is it?

Will definitely go for some test rides if I can. I'm open to all/most bikes at the moment that are going to be fun, suitable for getting to work & not too much on insurance.

The Speed Triple is a 1 liter 133bhp hooligans wheelie machine, did you mean the Street Triple? (which is a 675cc wheelie machine). In either case it will be a far more potent machine than the other bikes you have listed.

Yeah I meant the 675cc, not the 1l R model. Didn't realise the 675 was that much more potent than the others!

Thanks for the comments all

The Hornet is a bike I've always wanted, and I've not heard a bad thing about them, so I think I'll be going for one (a newer model with the digital read-out hopefully, I'm a sucker for digital read-outs ). I'll definitely keep my eye on some of the other bikes mentioned here as well in case any good deals come up

I really want it NOW! Been such a good few days to go out riding, but all I have is my 125 at the moment, which needs to be sold before getting another bike
