SCV Lead100

I'm new to the whole road riding, so I bought a Honda SCV100 off a friend. I enjoy riding the bike but he used it as a commuter as he has a blackbird also. I find other bikers don't nod at me when I have an L plate on but the time shortly after my crash when I didn't have an L plate they did Razz

Is it just me I but I also enjoy riding with other (but a lot of my friends have 50cc motorcycles restricted to 30, which I find dangerous) I find people don't like riding with a scooter even though I can keep up as I can reach the national speed limit. Surely we all enjoy our bikes just the same? :S

I'm afraid to tell you you're a fag of the road. :/

Being able to do the national speed limit doesn't mean you can keep up. Wink

Do your test and get rid of the ped, your life will improve! Mr. Green

Ste, my test is booked! I'm afraid it doesn't mean I will be leaving 125's behind for another 2 years (new laws came into effect just as I was getting on the road)! I realize I'm the fag of the road and I'd be on a bigger bike if the laws would let me, surely everyone was in my position once though?

Excellent that you've got your test booked, getting a 125 bike is an equally excellent idea. Very Happy

I know, I know Sad

I've only just taken my insurance out, so I'm saving for a 'bigger' bike. Problem is, my bike will only fetch me about £300 probably -_- Ahh well, only way is up Razz
