    Dirt Devil HandiMate 6V - £16.99 For a very modest £17 you can get this handheld from Dirt Devil, who know a thing or two about small vacuum cleaners. There’s a 400ml bin for your dust and a 10-minute run time from a charge for the 6V version, but there’s also a 7.2V wet/dry and 9.6V version for a few quid more that run for a little longer too.

    There’s plenty to more to recommend the ER-6f too, such as the decent finish and low insurance and running costs. It also has a fairing to deflect the weather, which its ER-6n sister doesn’t. Spend £3000 and you’ll bag a 2012 Kawasaki ER-6f with 20,000 and lots of fun left to run. Honda NC700X Effortless is a word that sums up the Honda NC700X perfectly.
