Well going to do my test soon, and i would love to know what bikes are available to me when i do this.
does anyone know were i could find a list of these, was thinking of a 33bhp 400 or something, im looking for a sports bike really, id prefer a standard 33bhp bike rather than a restricted 400, for obviose reasons but if not ill restrict a 400.

thanks Steve.

Why do people keep asking?
You can have ANY bike, so long as it's restricted to 33bhp.
Or you could judt not bother with restrictors like most people and get away with it.

Is the test that lets you ride 33bhp bikes for a couple of years any cheaper or easier than the other one that lets you loose on anything?

Nope they both costs £48 but if you are under 21 it is the only option you have. Have a look at https://www.fiinternational.com/ for details of the restrictor kits.

Don't get a Firestorm restricted to 33bhp, it's like having a girlfriend with no pu55y, looks nice from the side but isn't much fun at all

So long as it doesnt look like it does 200mph, and your not caught going at a highly illegal speed or riding wrecklessly no one will ever question it or you.

I ride a 60bhp 250, ive had numerous people including police look at me and my bike, conclude it is ridden in a safe way and is of small capacity, and leave me be. the few who have questioned its size have quickly assured themselves that i'm restricted to 250cc, or 500cc.
So few people actually know the law to make use of it, and provided that you ride in a way which does not needlessly draw attention to yourself then there is no need to restrict your bike.
