  1. Wifey retired yesterday so we're flying out to New Zealand this weekend to visit our son. He's working at an adventure place driving jet boats, doing quad bike tours and bungee jumps! I fancy doing two out of the three but there's no chance I'm doing a bungee jump!
  2. He'll be able to ride a 125cc on a CBT and L plates .. 150cc or 175cc and he'll have to pass his test to ride it. Honda S90 maybe? .. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/326035125064?itmmeta=01HRF4F1D9HGZDQ7PXMTKMPFYE&hash=item4be9353348:g:-eIAAOSwpKRly4Db
  3. Around Mansfield they repair them by chucking in a shovel full of asphalt and stamping it down with their foot!
  4. My understanding is that you will have to display L plates on a geared bike.
  5. The stupid part is that you can do your CBT on an auto bike and ride a manual on L plates! .. The whole system is bonkers!
  6. Allow learners to be supervised by anyone with a full licence like learners in cars! ..
  7. If you can afford it and its what you want then go for it! .. Look after it and don't wreck it!
  8. Me too! .. When they have a true range of 150+ miles and a charge time of 10/15 minutes I'm in! The Zero has a range of around 90 miles and a charge time of 4 hours!
  9. Dangerous driving Road Traffic Act 1988, s.2 Guideline effective from: 01 July 2023 Triable either way Maximum: 2 years’ custody Offence range: Community order – 2 years’ custody Obligatory disqualification: minimum 1 year with compulsory extended re-test. https://www.bing.com/ck/a?!&&p=2565fed4796bd9d2JmltdHM9MTcwNTc5NTIwMCZpZ3VpZD0yNjhjZmUwZS0xYThiLTY5NDQtM2MxNC1lZmJkMWI0MDY4MTcmaW5zaWQ9NTIxNg&ptn=3&ver=2&hsh=3&fclid=268cfe0e-1a8b-6944-3c14-efbd1b406817&psq=dangerous+driving+sentance&u=a1aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuc2VudGVuY2luZ2NvdW5jaWwub3JnLnVrL29mZmVuY2VzL21hZ2lzdHJhdGVzLWNvdXJ0L2l0ZW0vZGFuZ2Vyb3VzLWRyaXZpbmcv&ntb=1
  10. Probably the best way to keep it clean on the move! .. Only downside is that some smart arse might report you for littering and get you an £80 fine!
  11. You must pass your full moped or motorcycle test within 2 years, or you have to either take CBT again or stop riding. https://www.gov.uk/motorcycle-cbt
  12. I enjoyed my 2011 Tiger 800xc but found it a bit top heavy moving it around the garage and not easy to get on its centre stand! .. I'm happier with my V-Strom. As the one you're looking at has done 33k miles be aware that the major service for the Tiger is every 12,000 miles .. It can be expensive!
  13. I've got one of those! Cost about £10 from AliExpress .. Does the job!
