Laughing still got 3 years until you can ride a 125. All you need: licence, CBT, bike, insurance and all your riding gear. Start saving your money as bikes can get expensive

if i were you id consider getting a cheap 50cc, i used a scooter from when i was 16 and i got a pretty good looking one in my opnion, and they are incredibly fun to ride.

the best bit is you get a years ncb from riding one, and only have to wait 2 years. you can get 50s pretty cheap so keep that in mind.

A friend of mine who used to ride bikes alot, said that scooters can be unstable and are more dangerous than a motrobike is this true, or can you point me to a good one i could think of getting. Also what would i need to ride that when im 16.

yes mate it would, but get urself an rs125 and wipe the floor with the mito, dont go for second best when you can have 1st instead.

I've been there and tuned that and it was wicked for a year or so, then it got boring and was time to move on. but get whatever you want mate.

I started mine at 10am and was finished just before 3pm (the same day Laughing ) and there were 6 of us.

This included a ½ hour stop at a cafe down the seafront for food Wink

Depends on how Quickly you progress during the day, it could take half a day or it could take all day.....

You might pick it up in an hour but the others may not.....if you fuck up ( technicaly you can't fail, well unless you have no balance ) they will give you another chance on another day.....Remember it's Training not a Test.....

my scooter was incredibly stable, it was stupid how far i could lean it safely, i have a symjet . it never failed me and i had so much fun on it, i used to go out on it just because i could and it was great (although i only ever did 40), you could even get a sports 50 just dont spend to much, and dont buy an aprilla 50 like ive seen a lot of people do because they sound awful and look stupid (in my opinion) and i may say the same about the 125 version Razz
