Hi
I have 3 weeks till i can take my test and then i will be riding a bigger bike....now my dad is very picky with what i have and ive been trying to comprimise....first i thought of a dt125 but then my dad doesnt like the style. My mum doesnt want me to have a sports bike because she doesnt like the luck. I am the one paying for it but there still going on at me.. My choice would be to buy a restricted bike, personally a honda hornet but my dad again doesnt realise it will be restricted. can anyone think of a bike that will comprimise with my parents....btw my dad doesnt like 2 strokes lol

thankyou
leon

ps...sorry if the spelling is a bit shitty lol.

How old are you!?

If you're old enough to ride one and you are paying for it the I would stick 4 fingers up at your parents - two each!

They'll always be involved until you move out im afriad.

Right, the DTR is a great 125, but all off roaders 'appeal' to chavy scum, this is a good point to put across to the parents. A small sports like a NSR or something is slightly less desirable and cheaper to run.

Good luck! Wink

i think a dt125 would be great as plastics wouldnt be damaged when you drop it. im sure chain and ground anchor or locking to railings would deter thieves

i think i would probably have been better off with a dt125 than an rs125

i didnt realise dt125s were expensive to run tho

if you want to buy a bike that your dad thinks he will get to ride, i guess it should be the cg125
