Forgive the lame first post and thread, but the following is driving me nuts. I have never ridden a bike, but have chosen a 125 and am booked into a CBT and in true midlife crisis style cant wait to join the fraternity.
Amongst the hours of excited internet surfing for tips, advice, suggestions and so on, I recall a number of years ago at a food kiosk that a couple of bikers finished their biscuits and tea and hopped onto their sports bikes. When one of them started up, there was a Tarzan yell that sounded, and the other had a lion roaring on pressing the starter button.
Not sure it would suit a massive 125 putt-putting along at 25mph, but was wondering if anyone might be able to direct me toward where to research that kind of starter button mod. I cant find them anywhere!! |
Why, in the name of all that is holy, would you want that pos?

If you want to get noticed a loud obnoxious exhaust is the answer.
But not on a 125. Never on a 125. Unless of course you enjoy the sound of prolonged, wet farts. ____________________ Currently enjoying products from Ford, Mazda and Yamaha

Only if you haven't given it more than a moment's reflection. For instance, do you assume all people pass first time? No - you assume that many people will fail either or both modules, because - as easy as they may be to pass, it's also easy to fail them.
So let's say it takes three or four throws to pass either or both modules - add a few extra lessons prior to each retest and the cost can rise well above a grand.
For instance, say a full day lesson is £150. And let's suggest you'll need five lessons - that's seven fifty, plus test fees and bike usage - another couple of hundred. That's your grand, all in, for your lessons and first round of tests.
Now budget for a few failures, and the accompanying extra lessons that are very likely to precede each of the retests. Two lessons prior to each of the two retests would be £300, then throw in a few hundred for test fees and bike usage. You're a chunk over £1500, even when using comparatively competitive, fair bike school fees.
I *hope* two grand is a pessimistic costing - I *fear* it isn't. ____________________ "Life is a sexually transmitted disease and the mortality rate is one hundred percent."
