Thanks for the quick replies - I've got a bike already (a Yahama XT660Z) and I've done some small stuff like changing the oil, etc and have put some mods on but I'm wary of doing anything else at present in case I start poking around in the wrong place, resulting in the bike collapsing in comedy fashion.
I've also picked up various manuals from the net, I just need something simple which I can rip apart without too many concerns and for which spare parts will be cheap.
Thanks for the good advice re. the off-road, I've recently said hello to the local East Midlands Trail Riders Fellowship and will be going on some ride-outs with them so that's a good starting point.
