I was just thinking about getting back on a bike after many years (had a 70 Kawasaki 100 dirt bike) and would like to get a used inexpensive (note inexpensive I do own a 914) street bike. Mostly tooling around town and occationally on the highway. Any suggestions on make and price.

the 900 RR isnt exactly a "starter" bike (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif)
If you can still find one the GS500 Suzuki twin is a great starter bike but isnt available anymore and has been religated to track fodder or Garage trash.
My Choice would be the SV650! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif) sweet, light, resonably powered street bike with EFI and plenty of potential to upgrade should you get the itch for MORE!
