Also in a market for a 250cc for daily ride to work. To and fro is about 120km. Tempted to get the Svartpilen 250 just for the design and KTM engine profile but for the price I could get an MT07.

Am also open to a maxi scooter and Elegan 250 ABS caught my eyes as it is cheap and reliable for a maxi.

Also consider getting a CRF Rally or a used KLX250 and convert it into a supermoto. That or buy an already converted supermoto direct from owner.

Most important thing is the bike is comfortable for an hour highway ride from home to work.

Thanks.

If this is going to be a 120km daily commute, maybe get a bike with more weather and wind protection. Something with a fairing and bigger windshield.

Kawasaki has the dtracker, the KLX suoermoto. I've seen some used ones and some new old stock still available...it's not the most comfortable seat for a 120km daily commute though.

Thanks for the suggestion. Elegan 250 ABS is a really an ideal proposition right now.

You are not wrong.

Many big bike owners I know also own a 250maxi for commuting duties.
