First Motocycle? (1 Viewer)

[ClockworkSoldier]

As the title suggests, I'm looking at getting a motorcycle.

I've ridden a couple and have always loved the idea and now that I'm actually making enough money, I'm booking myself in to do the license test ASAP.

I'm looking into what bike I want for my first. I've looked at (the typical) Ninja 250, but I love the flexibility of a Motard (Along the lines of a Kawa KLX250S or SF or similar).

I know there are a few riders on BoS, so I thought I'd ask; what would you recommend?

Oh, and I'm 5'7" and ~69-71kg depending on the day lol.
