Hi everyone!

Just got round to registering after viewing this forum for the last fe years.

Well where do i begin.

I'm 19/M/UK

Previous bikes -

Age 16 - 99 Derbi Senda 50cc (79cc rebore)
Age 17/early 18 - 2001 Yamaha DT125R

Got distracted by cars for a year or two.

Car1- 99 Saxo VTR
Car2- 2001 Saxo VTR

Now - since i have the cash and i'm selling my car as it isn't practical for Uni, i'm going to get a bike to keep until i'm legal to ride 33bhp +. I've done my theory test, now just need to do practical.

I'm thinking of an Aprilia RS125, a mate has one and to be honest they go like shit off a stick and handle really well.

My other options Include an NSR125 or a CBR125. How do they fair against the Aprilia (people that actually know)?
I hear the CBR is 4 stroke so can't see it doing too well really!

I'm shifting towards the RS125 though as i'm pretty competant i can handle 33bhp.

I fooking love bikes. Why oh why did i get rid of them.

Thanks for reading lol

Im just wondering..why are you getting a 125 after doing your test?

But if you do get a 125, get the RS or NSR. CBR is crappy Laughing

Ps, RS is not 33 bhp

I'm 19 mate.

Have to wait two years as i can't do the direct access.

What is the exact bhp of the RS? I guess mid-late 20's?

Aye, get something restricted dude. I got my 500 restricted as I'm still in my 33bhp restriction stage. However, ym 500 is hardly sporty, so get a 400 or even a 600 restricted. Thumbs Up
