Hi Guys/ Gals. I'm 66. Had bikes in my teens many moons ago.I never took my test. So now i needed to by an affordable 125 cruiser style bike new. Don't laugh,(coz it was just to get me back on the road). It is a lexmoto Michigan. Yes cheap and chearfull i know. And its been very reliable. And comfortable despite it having an eliptical shaped rear tyre. anything over 50,and it feels like i.m riding on a roller coaster. Ok getting back to the nodding of this topic. What is it with you guys on your "Big Bikes". I nod and mostly get ignored by the majority. Most other 125 riders on the "L" plates nod. I did an experiment. I removed the front "L" plate for one ride out to Finchingfield in Essex. If you are a serious bike in Essex you will know this place. Anyway I got nods from everyone of the bikes i saw. I loved it. Went there again following week with "L" plates on. Barely a nod that time. Probable because they were going so fast. But thats another subject close to my heart that I might tell you all about. In brief. My Mums cat got killed by a 1000cc yamaha doing at least a ton on the back roads to Finchingfield. I'll be back................Dave
