Hi,
I don't know anything about motorcycles but am looking for one to save on gas and put less wear and tear on my car. I need a bike that is good for getting around town and to work (20 miles or less) Probably average 20-30 miles a day. I need to make the occasional trip up a heavy grade. About once a month (that is a 50 min drive) and possibly go to San Francisco 1-2 times a year which is a 5-6 hr drive. Mostly it is for light local driving and has to be able to handle 15-20 min of grade once a month also. I need a really reliable bike that will take little investment and would rather spend a little more now and have few prob for years instead of having problems over the years. I am looking to spend the least possible and if you have a suggestion as to a reliable but cheap light use bike that can't handle the grade or would take the long trips hard, I would still like to know because I can use my car for those trips. Thanks for any advice.
