I'm selling my gsa to get some Money back and pay of my credit card. I'll have about £3000 left. What bike would you buy and why?

It's mainly for weekend blast. I have had race bikes cruisers and off roaders. So what next

Gixer 750 or 1000 i have a gixer 1000 good for track good for blasting about and good for scenic riding 750 is more revy than the 1000 but the 1000 will open up in any gear wi just a twist off the throttle

perhaps a classic Triumph 500 twin might need a bit of work but will hold its value

Get a nice street triple. Saw a decent one on ebay the other day for 3k, looked good.

I just bought myself a nice cbr600rr for 2500 to use on track, and that's a blast to ride

See if you can find a CB1000R, the earlier version. I had a 2011 one and it was fantastic. I have it’s bigger brother now the 2009 Fireblade as it’s better for Trackday’s but the cb1000r was a lot more fun on the road. £3000 should get you one with a few miles on but the engines are bulletproof
