    Ok you got me on that one but for £500 i doubt you'd even get a CBF125!
    If i only had a limited budget of £500 i'd take a leaf out of Carlosoul's book and get a ropey old CB500 for a winter hack.
    Notoriously strong bikes and shouldn't cost much more than 50p to repair if something breaks ;)

    At £225 it dosnt matter if it ends up in a hedge really. can ride about it give it a weekly wash and forget about it. can leave it parked anywhere as im not attached to it. And if i sell it in the spring I will make a huge proffit so its all gravy baby. lol
