Ok so i want a bigger bike to be precise the R6 maybee 2001 model
What kinda price would i be looking at?

Also am i allowed to ride a 600 being only 18 do i have to wait for 2 years? or can i have it restricted to a 400cc bike?

The CBT was nerve racking enough so the propper test is gonna have me shittin bricks (possibly enought to make a garage for my r6 from Razz)

Getting kinda pissed of with my rs 125 as it seems to be broken more than its working lol,

Should i go for a 400cc sports bike? like ZXR for example they look nice to me and supposidly are pocket rockets? Or should i just go straight for the sexy 600 beast lol??


Cheers Neil

Right, legally as your 18 you have to go down the A2 route, which involves passing your test on a 125cc, this means your restricted to 33bhp for two years.

However theres nothing to stop you getting any bike and getting the bike restricted to 33bhp.

Yokogeri on the forum has a restricted R6, so he'll be able to tell you what it's like.

Click on Parker's or WiseBuyers for price information.

You can ride what you want when you pass your test, but you'll have to limit it to 33 bhp for the first 2 years. The only advantage to a 400 is that the insurance is going to be cheaper - at 18 with a new licence you probably need to have a look at some quotes before you go out and buy a particular bike, you may find a fully comp quote is more than the bike itself!
