BHP, Practical test etc

Ok so i'm over 21 and due to the local instructors doing nothing less than a 3 day intensive course at about £400 i am going to do the test on my 125cc without lessons.

I have ridden a bit and did a test years ago and only failed on the E stop. I have redone my CBt and booked the theory test. I used to be a car instructor so I have the road no how. I know what to expect and I am doing the lifesavers as second nature.

Which bikes are below 33BHP ?

How much does it cost to restrict (then unrestrict) a larger bike.?

About £130-200 to restrict a bike. However I should mention that you may be able to get this done for free, as I did when I bought a 56bhp bike from a dealer during my 33bhp restriction.

See this for some 33bhp-ready bikes that have a greater capacity than 125cc Thumbs Up

Some bikes take the restriction better than others too.

Mine for one.
