Thought I better say hi, passed cbt a few weeks back and grabbed a ybr-125 for heading to and from the job i'm starting (just graduated)

it's 5 years old and has a bunch of scratches/rusty patches, but it works well enough ( tops out at 57 mph XD)

HI, welcome to BCF, are you going to do your full test or stick with the 125?

i'll see how it goes, only picked it up on thursday, so i'm still at the having fun and getting used to the bike stage.
I'd like to lose the L plates though, seems to make the local idiots want to overtake me for no real reason, and something that can hit 70 would be nice

[Magnet]

I still have idiots "TRY" to overtake me on my 600 Mainly Audi drivers for some obscure reason! The best bit is even if they manage to get past me, I easily get back past them

yeah i'll just let them go for now, i can match a cars speed until about 40, but the acceleration drops like a stone from there

Still gives ya a smile at traffic lights or in jams where you can just filter through the cagers. The look on their faces is just priceless Doesn't matter if your on a 50cc or a 1400cc muscle bike, they just hate it

yet to have the opportunity to filter really, did guildford-horsham and back to learn the route today and got stuck in a bit of a jam, but there was no way past a big tractor (or at least no way i've got the balls to take yet XD)

[Magnet]

Yeah I used to sit back wishing I could squeeze through. In the end I just thought fuck it! Use every space available, its your road too

Only car I miss is my BMW 328i, that car used to make me drive like a right twat
