Hi mate, welcome Thumbs Up

If you done your provisional license cbt (50cc 30mph legally) then I recommend an RS50 Wink or a cheap ped for infrequent use -pottering around town!

A1 license - a CBR125?
A2 - RS125 maybe.............like said, more info chap Thumbs Up

You can ride a 125cc (14.6bhp) on just a CBT, so long as your 17+

If your 16 then you'll have to go for a 50cc that does 30mph.

If your 21+ then you could do a DAS course and jump onto whatever you like (but ffs, be careful if you do)

If your looking for a 125, then i think most people will recommend the CG125, from what i've heard its indestructable Smile

I'm a tart, so i spent more than i should have and got a CBR125 instead. If i'd got a CG i could have passed my full test by now Rolling Eyes

Still, loving my CBR Smile
