I'm new to the bikers community. Started using a bike for my daily commute about 4 months ago. I'm contemplating upgrading but my needs are simple and all the options are truly confusing.
I'm looking for a reliable commuter that is economical and that won't brake the bank. I know that a BMW 650/800/1200 or a Honda NC750 or a Yamaha 660 or so many other could easily suffice but then my question is that all those bikes more often than not comes with a price tag. What other options are good, reliable, tested options?
Some details that might be needed: Rider weight - 100kg plus another 10kg of luggage. Daily commute of 25km one way therefore 50km in total / day. Stay in Cape Town so be mindful of the wind, rain, etc.
Then considering winter in Cape Town any advice / help with tips on making the commute safe and pleasurable will be appreciated. Is it even something that must be considered?
