Free test rides at Motorcycle Live, list of bikes available below:

https://www.motorcyclelive.co.uk/features/test-ride-zone/

Which bike would you test ride, or would you recommend riding?
I think either a Ducati Evo or Streetfighter, an R1, or both!

I also would love to try out the Zeros, but not sure how many slots I can book in one day! Mr. Green

It does say uk full license which technically a restricted license is a full uk license..

It doesnt say full uk unrestricted liense does it ?

Is it on site driving only ? if not i can understand the need for it to be unrestricted...

Easiest choice ever.

848 Evo.

But is it worth the hassle?
If you're really interested just go get a ride at a dealer near you when you want. That way you can pick the road yourself and ride how you want to. Then you'll know if you really want it.
