Guest Posted April 21, 2015 Posted April 21, 2015 Hello bikers My name is Adas and i am 20 years old living in London as i am going to take test A2 after this summer as now i started saving some money on buying my first bike 1.will i be only able to ride 125cc right ? or i can get higher ? 2.i will save up to £2000 or even £3000 is it going to be enough? 3. need some advice on which bike should i buy so its good as i was reading some people buying bikes and they have problems Quote
RantMachine Posted April 21, 2015 Posted April 21, 2015 Welcome to the forum! I'll try to answer for you:1. Higher! Anything up to 47bhp. This includes bigger bikes that have been fitted with a restrictor, but only ones that are 94bhp or below when unrestricted. Also there is a power-to-weight limit to be careful of (0.26bhp per kg). There are lots of websites that list bikes you can ride on an A2 license.These are fine on an A2 without even needing a restrictor: http://www.visordown.com/learners/guide-to-a2-permissible-bikes/22106.htmlAnd these are just a small selection of those that can be restricted and ridden on an A2: http://www.visordown.com/learners/top-10-a2-restrictable-motorcycles/26167.html2. Depends slightly on what you want, but should be more than enough to get you something nice! Although, is that just for the bike or does insurance and your protective gear need to fit into that budget too?3. Not a BMW F650GS or G650GS. That's all the advice I can give on that one Being serious though, an SV650 or ER6F or MT07 (all require a restrictor) are all popular choices and not without good reason.What sort of bike do you like?

Guest Posted April 21, 2015 Posted April 21, 2015 that budget is only for the bike i looked up i really like the ER6F looks nice Quote

Guest Posted April 21, 2015 Posted April 21, 2015 oh yeah and another thing i been looking at 300cc this mind sound stupid but would i be able to travel to a another country yes. an A2 License is a full license as far as riding in the EU is concerned and more likely than not everywhere else too. just like here you can ride on the motorways once you have passed your test, the only restrictions can think of offhand is germany where you have to be over 18.Some countries don't allow 125s on motorways. regardless of the type of license you have.
