Best Bike for $2500/inexperienced
Hi,
I am presently in Ecuador and will be returning to the States in late February. I would like to take a motorcycle trip from the US to Panama and back before I do the Peace Corps (here in Ecuador) in July. I have about $2500 to spend on a bike, and am a fairly inexperienced rider. I am thinking about a 2001-2003 Yamaha Virago 250. What do you think about doing the trip with this bike specifically? If not the Virago 250, what would be some good options for bikes at $2500? Better to go with a newer/low mileage bike with a small engine or a larger but older bike? Thanks.
