Hi folks,

I found this site in a video on google, and im about to start biking next week, i know my questions might be silly, but seriously, i love motorbikes and i have some questions:

* I dont have a license, where to go, what to do, and how much it costs me to get a license for ALL bikes ?

*Since im new to bikes, is it recommended to get a performance bike ? i love to have GSX-R 1000, or kawasaki ZR-9........I love them.

*I am 90 kg, 186cm, i am a bodybuilder, but whenever i take a look on bikers bodies, i see that they are slim, is there any relationship between that and what kind of bike u can drive ????????

Might ask more later, but for now, im sorry for being annoying thing, but i love to know before i get in the subject...



P.S, i have never been on a bike before !!!!!! Rolling Eyes


Cheers Smile

acwman,

This is more than i expected, But..


1- I have international driving license, so is it included within the
Quote:
"First things first - you need your provisional driving licence. To get this, pick up a form from the post office, fill it in and send it to the dvla with some money. Sorted. If you already have a car licence, it should include provisional motorbike entitlement. Have a look on the papery bit and make sure.

"

2- I am 25 years old, and i didnt get the 3rd point in the link u provided, do i have to wait two years to be able to drive any bike, OR i understood it correctly, that i can take intesive training to be able to do that ???

*How much time till i can ride a gsxr ?

If you're in the UK, you sit DAS and you can ride one as soon as you pass.

And no, there's really no correlation between size and what kind of bike you ride, it's just down to what you find comfortable.

If you've never been on the road before, 5 days.

If you drive a car, maybe 3 days.

All depends on the individual, of course.
