Hi am with go skippy for car insurance so that’s ideal

Thanks guys looks like the dtr road bike is up for sale lol ,I will be going to view different style bikes shortly thanks again guys il let you know what I choose

Cheers for fast reply mike so you have given me something else to consider now ,what would be your thought on what cc to go to as I’m 6ft and 20stone 49 years old and climbing into the dtr is getting harder with it being a tall bike , I did go to my local bike shop looking at 125s is there any bikes you would stay clear of as a first bike and do you have any recommendations on a mid to low seat height style bike

Lol I was told that I had to do my theory for my cbt which turned out not to be true I have the app on my phone and pass the theory and hazard perception every time with average 100% with the odd single question wrong when I’m not paying attention,was practicing it for hours everyday until I was told it isn’t necessary for the cbt

A great bike but I need a 125 first for a year to get some road experience.

Thanks for replying . The bike will be used for fun only ,probably short rides up to a few hours a time ,live close to a town centre so lots of traffic near me but only 5 mins from country back roads

Hi guys newbie here 40yr old been riding off road for a few years and want to get in the road I will be taking my cbt very soon ,I had a Yamaha dtr for off road so I thought I’d buy a dtr for on road so grabbed a 2001 dtr but I’m now wondering if I should get a different bike for the road .So would any of you guys recommend a dtr for a first road bike or something totally different (I do find the dtr a little high getting on and off due to me being a tad over weight ( 20st) ,been toying with the idea of maybe selling the dtr and grabbing a ktm duke
