Ok, so in September I will have my Learners permit and I with that I am able to drive a speed restricted bike ( 70Km/hr and under) and has to be 50cc or under. I was going to find myself a Scooter, but have recently found some speed restricted bikes that don't ahve the scooter/moped look. I was just wondering if anybody could give me any advice on a good starter bike that isn't too expensive ( I want a second hand one) and where on earth i might get one. ( i live in BC by the way) Thanks so much!!

There are many different styles of bike you can get. There really is not a certain type of bike you need. You could get an aprilla sports with a 50cc engine if you are into that sort of thing or you could go the other way and get a cruiser 50cc.

Best thing to do is look on e bay and type in 50cc bikes in the search bar. use it to find the style you like then get your local paper and rummage through the ad's. You could even get the bike trader as they have a section for learner legal and scooters.

hope that helps.

Where abouts are you because from some of your phrases it doesnt sound like your U.K. based.

Thanks so much - I'll check out ebay and see what I can find.

- I'm English, but I live in B.C Canada, so i'm thinking i might not get too much help in finding one for sale, but I can do that myself hopefully!
