Just make sure you're on your bike when you say it. Then give it some berries and they'll never catch you Laughing

i was going to be getting a bandit 6 or similar this year but i cant quite justify the cost of insurance yet. the insurance on a runner 125 at 17 with 1 yrs no claims is £190 where as a bandit would be £700+

the runner cost £820 and any decent, clean bandit would be £1700+

once iv passed my test il probably get one but cant justify the cost atm Sad

I currently ride a speedfight 100, but I'm getting a Bandit 600 in a couple of weeks (come on payday!).

It's gonna be a bit of a culture shock I can tell you. It'll be big, heavy, noisy, and I'm gonna have to learn how to ride again. But I'm looking forward to it immensely!

Last proper bike I rode was the CG125 I did my test on, after passing my test and riding it back to the test centre. Can't wait to get a gearbox again.

exactly, i had a blast on my mates dt125 on sunday and having gears is so much better Very Happy

so much faster than my runner and it was still restricted Shocked

i think im gonna keep the runner until iv got my A2 licence then im going to be getting somthing along the lines of a bandit. i cant really go sport 600 as im 6'4 and i dont get on with bikes built for average people.

the sport 600s i do like are r6's and gixxer srads, although i cant imagine what insurance will be like with one of them, probably in excess of £1500.

Apparently I am gay? Sad

(And possibly the only gay in the village by the look of it? Mr. Green

)

LOL I think my fella would probably disagree with you, but then his bike might make him gay too so he probably wouldn't mind....... Shocked

(ps I have several gay mates. One rides a fazer, one GPZ500. All the rest pretty much without exception are on sports bikes. In fact from my own experience I would suggest that a fully faired sports rider with full leathers - especially if they match the bike - is far more likely to be gay. Thumbs Up
