Okay, So I'm 16 (17 in a few days)

Somebody has suggested in the Live Chat that I should buy a MK1 fireblade and restrict it to a 125cc, and so each test that I would take, I would un-restrict it a little and then I wouldn't have to buy a new bike

I have no Idea, someone help me? Suggest a bike in which I can buy pleaaaase? ;Wink

Forget the idea. Even restricted, a Fireblade would be illegal to ride.

We used to have a tradition on here that when a post of such ridiculousness was presented we would reply with a picture of a cat sucking a blokes nob but this has now been banned by the bloke that owns BCF. Take a moment and imagine a cat gobbling a stiff and well veined dick.

You can put a cork in each cylinder to make it 125cc. So yes, it is possible.

What you need to do is get a Goblin, and name it Steve, tell this gobblin 5 times that you wish to see his secret, then all of a sudden a full licence along with an HP4 BMW s1000rr will appear in front of you.

Be wary though that the Goblin is a sneaky bastard and will try and confuse you.

The best thing to do is buy a 125 and mod it from there. Cheaper and legal.

For example on my CBF125;

- Derestricted, tuned (port and polish) and also exhaust from a CBR600R, bike now has 47HP (could do 80HP but I have an A2 licence)
- Red/Orange power band, rev limits at 15k
- +1T front sprocket, 50% more torque at peak RPM
- -1T rear sprocket, 25mph faster on highest gear

Because it's a 4 stroke 125 you still can ride it with a CBT and L-plates.

This man talks sense.

Its much easier to bore out a 125 up to a 1000cc than it is to restrict a 1000cc down to a 125cc.

Or just get an Aprilia RS125 and derestrict it... That would be as fast, if not faster than a FireBlade

just buy a cheap chinese 125cc bike and do an engine swap, even an R1 engine should be simple and would only need a couple of 13mm spanners. then say you bought it like that if anyone asks. itll be fine.
