Dance! I've Passed!!! Very Happy Passed my A2 test the other day and I'm so happy it's over with now. I suppose the real learning starts now lol.

Got a CBR125 at the moment and I'm keeping my eye open for a 400cc - maybe a VFR or CBR. (Love to hear any recommendations, don't want anything to heavy as I'm only small) Quite a few I've looked at online are imports, do I need to know anything special when looking at an imported bike?

imports can be a little unreliable at times depending on which one but the main problem is finding parts for them if it ever does break, but at first buy they tend to be alot cheaper.

Yeah, 'Grey' imports are cheaper as they are imported with no UK spec, usually from Japan.

'Parralel' imports have been imported by the dealer and usually have everything done to convert them for immediate use on UK roads. Thumbs Up

get a CBR or VFR 400 , or a SV650 should be fine for your height and size. And perfect for gaining some more experience.

most 400cc honda's and suzuki's are imports and the clocks are in klms but there is the kawasaki zxr 400 which they did officially sell them in the UK so they are in miles but they are also imports of them around but its not too hard to find a UK one (mine is and Im looking at selling or trading it atm Wink )
