Hi!

Just to let anyone who cares know.. I've moved up from the 50cc peds onto the next biking stage, the learner 125 Laughing

02 plate - 19000km for £675, not bad I think. Few spots of surface rust but nothing too bad. Not the prettiest thing out there but its only a stepping stone. Getting the hang of the gears ok though!

Now the bad part - i'm not 17 till late September Sad

Laughing of course luxy.. My reasoning was that if I buy a flash 2t 125 ill get hooked and not bother with the test.

This gives me an incentive to do the test ie more speeed Very Happy

Perfect 125 choice. Well done. It's easy to get suckered in by £3k mitos etc. But a ~£700 CG will do you proud.

couldnt agree more, get your theory booked now, and try and take it before you are 17, this will help you when taking your test having already done it.

Get your test done over winter and keep the CG - then towards the end of winter get a bike you want. winter is usually the cheapest time to pick up a bike
