It would have to be:
1) Under 750 cc for registration and insurance costs to be bearable.
2) Under 220 kg kerb weight for me to be able to push it up hill.
3) Good brakes, good handling on pavement, but still able to be taken a bit off road.
So....
Kawasaki Versys, in spite of that UGLY headlight.
Or, in spite of that full fairing which is a pain in the neck to clean, repair when sliding etc, Honda CBR600F4.

But I would prefer to keep the good old FZS600. Perhaps with added Wilbers shock absorber and stronger springs, but still keep it.

Most things done in a hurry need to be done again - patiently.
