1. no
2. If you can't afford a car you can't afford a bike either, cars are much cheaper. If you can afford a bike buy mine. ZX10 on ebay tatterdemalionterri.
3. Why limit yourself to Suzuki and Yamaha? If reliability is a big thing for you, you are never - ever - going to beat Honda, and their build quality is better than anyone else's. As a learner, you have to do a day's CBT training (around £100) before you can ride legally on the roads. Once you've done CBT, you can get a bike of upto 125cc, and Honda do them in all styles; traditional (CG125), trailie (Varadero), sports (CBR125), cruiser (Shadow) and supermoto (XR125L). I had the Varadero until I took my test, and it was a great bike; 80-90mpg, cheap to insure, fantastic ride and it looked like a much bigger bike. Loads of people thought it must have been a 500-600cc bike. People might try and tempt you with fancy 2-stroke exotica such as Aprilia sports bikes but take it from me; for what you want, a 4-stroke Honda fits the bill perfectly. BTW, the person who said that bikes cost more to run than cars is wrong; everything about bikes is cheaper - servicing, fuelling, replacement parts. HTH Tarby
