Himalayan. Relatively cheap, owners seem to like them

Himalayan is 10/10

I even have an authorised dealer for Royal E nearby, and they do have a loyal following it seems, they just seem a bit ersatz (there is one in Camo which I assume is ironic) or something largely irrelevant. Worried I might look a bit of a twat but that does not usually stop me. Will arrange a test ride. I think you can lower the seat a bit.

Been reading here for a while. Been off bikes for a few years, but used to be a mild-mannered rider in the VFR vein. Now thinking of riding again, potential use is mainly pootling around, and the odd longer run, but the attraction would be some easy greenlaning, hilly trails with gravel and stones. Not much mud or dirt. All new to me. I doubt I will ever get into it seriously, so a compromise bike is what I think I need. I know I will be able to change around suspension and tyres. I am happy to spend £3000 odd in the hope of not losing too much if I do not get on with things. Honda CRF250 or something? I have quite short legs (30 inseam jeans) and am a bit nervous of the learning curve generally. And I am not a home mechanic sadly.
