I know when learning to ride speed shouldn't be the most important thing but anyway, what is the fastest bike you can buy with your restricted license?

Acceleration wise, the sv650 is good. Not too heavy and decent torque. You're really looking at 100mph maximum anyway, anymore and it's a bonus (had my restricted sv indicating nearly 115 but don't believe that)

Fastest bike on a restricted licence?

They are all 33BHP, won't they all be the "fastest"? Laughing

Oh sorry I forgot your CBR125 would be the fastest bike on a restricted licence, my bad.

Yeahh go on a diet too.

And don't expect much performance when giving a pillion on a 33bhp bike, I was nearly getting beat at the lights by cars.

The fastest bike you can buy on a restricted licence would be between the ZZR1400 and suzuki GSX 1300R hyabusa.

Legally speaking, probably an RS125. Nice little bikes, I'm guessing quite a bit of fun when kept on 90mph b-roads.

Tis a ridiculous question.

But yes, probably an RS125 (or similar) due to it being lightest.

33bhp is 33bhp, you're still only gonna see just over 100mph.

The restricted licence has a power to weight limit as well, im not too sure what this is (since i have lardy bikes that arent 33bhp by a long shot this has never bothered me)

Absolutely correct, which rules out ~30bhp crazy lightweight 125s.

Someone more anal than myself will google the exact numbers I'm sure.
