What kickstart said. If it does more than 30 it's illegal.
Lots of people do it and get away with it, just don't ride past coppers at 30+. ____________________ My Flickr |

He's kind of forgotten to mention that he's in Ireland.
I found this: https://www.msa-ireland.com/licenses.htm
According to that, it depends whether your provisional entitlement ('Learner Permit') is A1 (bike 50cc-125cc) or M (strictly moped only - 28mph & 50cc). The minimum age for both is 16.
Quote: | The ‘A1’ Learner Permit is available from 16 years of age, but will restrict the holder to motorcycles of 50cc to 125cc and a 11Kw/14.5bhp limit. Even if you pass the ‘125’ Driving Test, when you up-grade to a bike over 125cc you will need an ‘A’ licence provisional, a second ‘test’ on a bike over 150cc, and endure all restrictions.
The ‘M’ Learner Permit is strictly for mopeds, or engine-assisted bicycles, under 50cc with a top speed of below 45kmp /28mph and is available from 16. |
Off topic, I didn't know this:
Quote: | REGULATIONS
From 1 December 2007 motorcyclists on a learner permit (provisional licence) have had to wear a yellow, fourescent tabard (not a vest or jacket) with regulation sized L plates showing both back and front.. This applies to all learner permits\ provisional licences regardless of date of issue.
The requirement is that a person with a learner permit (provisional licence) for category A, A1, or M, shall not drive such a vehicle unless there are displayed on a yellow fluorescent tabard worn over the person’s outside clothing, the letter ‘L’, not less than 15 centimetres high in red on a white ground in clearly visible vertical positions to the front and rear of the person’s torso. |
*snigger* unlucky, Irish L-platers...  ____________________ CBR125|||GSXR400|||CBR400|||CBR400|||CB250RS|||GSXR750|||CB250RS

If anything I suppose it's good incentive to pass your test, L plates on the bike doesn't make much odds to me but looking like a twat would  |
