How old are you and what is your budget?

Woke up to this this morning!... I won't be going far today!
-
Your age and lack of no claims are the problem. Where you live may be a factor too! Maybe get a cheap 125 to get that first years NCB?(as long as you don't make a claim)

France (and somewhere else in Europe) Tour 2025
KiwiBob replied to wastedyears1981's topic in Touring
No longer required! Repealed in 2020. -
They're no good for me! .. I'm colour blind on red/green!
-
Well you come across as a bit of an arse with an attitude problem .. so you can whistle!
-
Surely the best person to ask for advice/guidance/pointers would be your instructor?

It doesn't matter what the officer said ... Section 35 of the Road Traffic Act 1988 states that12: Drivers must comply with traffic directions given by a constable or traffic officer regulating traffic in a road. So if he tells you to get in the queue then that is what you have to do!

There is a difference! .. One is fact! .. The other is conjecture!
-
I would take that with a pinch of salt!
-
You say you have not seen the video so how do you know what the officer said or did not say?

Road Traffic Act 1988: A person driving a motor vehicle on a road must stop the vehicle on being required to do so by a constable in uniform.

Look on ebay or Amazon ... Plenty on there.

Anyone used a ROADLOK?
KiwiBob replied to AstronautNinja's topic in Clothing, Luggage, Accessories and Security
Looks like a decent bit of kit if you have a spare £200 ... No good for my bike though as it only fits on bikes with calipers that are radially mounted! -
You're comparing apples and oranges! RD400 was a 2 stroke twin .. Triumph 400 is a 4 stroke single!
-
I don't know if this is the same as yours but it shows those plastic bits.
-
I know nothing about sailing .. I built it because I was bored .. sailed it half a dozen times the flogged it! I built this too!
-
You could always knock up one of these in your garage! .. Running costs are very low!

Do I need a full car licence?
KiwiBob replied to adamgt42's topic in CBT, Test and Advanced Training Information
No! You do not need a car licence! To obtain your motorcycle licence you need a provisional licence, complete a CBT, pass the theory test, pass the two part practical test(mod 1 & mod 2) At age 42 you can go for an A licence, not much point going for A2. https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/62137c89d3bf7f4f05879a1e/how-to-get-a-motorcycle-licence.pdf -
Who told you that? .. I've never heard that one before!! As long as its a proper L plate its OK on the screen! https://www.bing.com/ck/a?!&&p=fb1f3832679b05a9JmltdHM9MTcyMTI2MDgwMCZpZ3VpZD0yNjhjZmUwZS0xYThiLTY5NDQtM2MxNC1lZmJkMWI0MDY4MTcmaW5zaWQ9NTI1Nw&ptn=3&ver=2&hsh=3&fclid=268cfe0e-1a8b-6944-3c14-efbd1b406817&psq=l+plate+motorcycle+windscreen&u=a1aHR0cHM6Ly9iZWdpbi1tb3RvcmN5Y2xpbmcuY28udWsvbW90b3JjeWNsZS1sLXBsYXRlcy8&ntb=1

Put a 125 engine in it then try!
-
With L plates, yes!

Its a Yamaha Tricity 300 .. You don't even have to do your CBT to ride one if you have a car licence! https://www.bing.com/ck/a?!&&p=942217799bd37033JmltdHM9MTcyMDY1NjAwMCZpZ3VpZD0yNjhjZmUwZS0xYThiLTY5NDQtM2MxNC1lZmJkMWI0MDY4MTcmaW5zaWQ9NTI0MA&ptn=3&ver=2&hsh=3&fclid=268cfe0e-1a8b-6944-3c14-efbd1b406817&psq=yamaha+tricity+300cc&u=a1aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubW90b3JjeWNsZW5ld3MuY29tL2Jpa2UtcmV2aWV3cy95YW1haGEvdHJpY2l0eS0zMDAvMjAyMC8&ntb=1

Tricycles, not a solo bike .. But you can ride one of these!...

I'm 6ft and 95Kg and found the Honda cg125 perfectly adequate .. My son (6ft 4in and 115kg) had a Honda cbr125 and could get up to 70 with a tail wind. If you can find one the Honda 125 Varadero is a good fit for a big guy.
