I don't really care about the price so much because I assume they will all be affordable. I'm certainly not going to buy a classic or antique.

Currently I'm leaning towards a Ducati 650 Monster or a BMW 650.

One of my concerns is that 2 months after I buy it I'll wish I had bought an 1100.

Any suggestions? Post yours.
