    also can i buy a new bike in the north without the tax and pay the tax in ireland plus the vrt,or maybe a 6 month old one and pay the vrt,would there be any savings?

    Doubtful. Worth your while checking though, I think VRT is paid simply by year and engine size.

    had a look in bikeworld,nice selection,and some good advise on getting back into bikes.

    Just some advise on bikeworld, I would steer clear of them when buying gear. Go to cotters which is just don't the road, sound lads in there and alot of the gear I have found in there is half the price it is in Bikeworld..

    So it's that time again, when the short-legged tree needs to find a new motorbike. So the CBF250 was excellent (until stolen by mean people) though slightly too high, and the brother's lovely bandit is slightly too high too.
    Any suggestions for something a little shorter? (and dear jesus no cruisers, they're horrid yokes) (oh and 250cc +)


    What about this:
