If you're not going to do freeway, a dual sport is a cheap way to go that is upright and easy to ride. I personally think scooters are more dangerous than motorcycles - less power, smaller wheels, often crappy brakes. No thanks.

For BMWs, you can find various 650 dual sports around that aren't ridiculously expensive. The 1150RT is a pretty heavy bike - much more "serious" than just putting around to work on surface streets.

There are two kinds of riders - those who have been down and those who will go down. Just the reality of riding.
