Do you think the original Yamaha MT03 is the best Used A2 licence motorcycle?

've been riding for over 30 years and can honestly say you can have more fun on this bike than 90% of other machines. I've owned too many bikes to mention but when i had an MT03, i also had a Yam FZ1n and a Honda VFR800 and 9 times out of 10 i'd choose the Mt03.. And the fun factor goes up massively with some baffle-free after market cans fitted.

I am currently 16 so was doing some research ahead of time for when i'm 17 and i planned on getting a DT125 but reading the law that came in in 2013 it says you are only allowed something like 14hp with a full license at 17 but the dt makes 17hp so i would need to wait until i had an A2 to be able to ride it right?

the problem is the price with these, for a decent example with 5-10k miles you're looking at £3kish you can go buy last years duke 390 for 3.5k with 500-1500 miles. heck you can get a 2016 duke for 3750 without a single mile on the clock and is like 40-50kg lighter. both look very nice i just think because the duke 390 is still in production its the smarter choice. (new parts still produced, and they have loads of bits of and bops to add on if you're into that.)
