Ha thats funny i live down Greenhill you probably seen my wifes car she a driving instructor for RED

i was going to put 2 grand on a bike anyway but i will be on the road for £131 instead of £500 and in a year have a lesson and pay the 2 module charges, in my situation this is better way for me to do it. cheer Tom

well i passed my theory today some very weird questions on it very different from my car and C cat. got my CBT booked in with AEP Motorcycle Training on the 28th and now just in the process of getting helmet ect and looking for a bike, seen a few around the 2 grand mark with mileage ranging for 6k to 19k so not to sure and with prices nearly the same from a private and dealer, i will probably go to a dealer for the warranty and some haggling hopefully cheers Tom

cheers for the replies everyone i have my theory tomorrow hopefully shouldn't be a problem as the wife is a driving instructor and has been hassling me. i think im going to do down the route on the R125 on a CBT for 2 years and see about the law change as i would have to do both to do my DAS at what ever point i choose. hi Noise AKA Keith as for the corps paying my bike licences its all stopped as dispatch riders have been stopped we all asked when we so at leconfields doing our C CE and everyone said no but i can get military discount from the guy in yeovil for all bike tests so its better than nothing.

Hi i'm Tom, i'm 24 and live in the Yeovil and in the forces, I joined the forum to get some more information and other more experienced riders view on what to do as im very confused. I want a bike and i always have, but as i have always had classic minis i never had to money or time to get a bike but now as the mini are sold i have money to cover the costs of owning a bike but that is where i'm stuck. I was dead set on doing my DAS over my leave but i took a step back and looked at different things like what happens if i spend $500+ and i dont actullary like riding a bike, i think its alot of money to fork out at the moment, so i was looking at just doing my theory and my CBT and buying a YZF-R125 as im only spending 130 to get on the road and this gives me up to 2 years to think about if i want to do my Test, in which i would look into doing a few lessons and then module 1 and 2 with this i see it costing around the same as doing DAS but really spread over 2 years and with the 2 years hopefully have more confidence on the bike so i can easily progress to a bigger bike. Im just wondering what peoples views are and if this is the right way to go about things. Also i'm looking at buying a second hand YZF-R125 for my commute to work its 35miles one way on A and B roads i did look at getting an Aprilia RS125 but with the 2 stroke and getting the bike warm i dont think it is for me so just some more thoughts from people with R125 is this the correct bike to go for, im not bothered about riding as fast as possible i just want to enjoy the ride to work as the car is getting boring cheers Tom
