The insurance companies charge so much because of inexperienced riders like you coming unstuck with ther "accidental wheelies" round the block. You wont last long riding like that !
August 15, 200816 yr So thats taking it easy?? The insurance companies charge so much because of inexperienced riders like you coming unstuck with ther "accidental wheelies" round the block. You wont last long riding like that ! Thats true I am only 19 and when i got my first "big bike" i almost killed myself. It is worth getting your self on an advance course. I have done the IAM and i am the youngest in my group by at least 10 years lol. But dnt let it put you off a few of my mates have to bikes but most have busa's or super blackbirds.

August 15, 200816 yr Author so you have had your restricted license two years then? bet it feels great without the restrictors i envy you very much (JOKE) you get much hassle with the rozzers whilst on your restricted license , like them wanting to see you certificate and checking it over
August 15, 200816 yr very nice bike! did you say you were 17 :S so you cant ride it yet ..or did i miss read it
August 15, 200816 yr Dave dude!!!!!! He can ride as he has passed his test! if he is 17 he can only ride a 125 not over 33bhp
August 15, 200816 yr Author i can ride it so long as its restricted to 33bhp as i have a restricted license for two years, after the two years the license is no longer restricted so i can have whatever bike i want full power!!
