No more scooting

[misspoppy]

My Honda SH125i got taken during the night . I have had it for almost 6 years and I still count myself lucky for having it that long. So many scooter theft in and around London.

I do not want to buy another 125cc so this leaves me with two options:

1. Hang up the biker gear

2. Attempt to gain the A license again

It has to be the second, right? But I get so easily discouraged. I need to find a really good training school.

That's really rotten luck, I hope the insurance company is sympathetic to your claim if the bike's not recovered. A good excuse to go for your A license now, but keep the next bike with a bit more security in mind.

Sorry to hear that, get licence and be done.

On no - the scrotes!!! Take any opportunity to achieve something positive out of the experience, that's what I say

What side of London are you? north London motorcycle training or Phoenix are good

Go for your license . Don't worry too much about the quality of the training school . It's going to be your own hard work and determination that will bring success . Good luck .

I too say get your full license it will be worth it when you pass which I'm sure you are more than capable of doing, and I hope the scrotes get they're comeuppance in the very near future and that the insurance company will be kind to you

Option 2, definitely!

So sorry to hear that, the b'tards when caught should be made to do gardening ,

on a positive note, go get your full licence then do this to the a'holes

was it chained up?

 

It had an alarmed disc lock and an oxford chain around the back tire. They only left a chain loop that they saw through. I wanted to put a tracking device on it but thought I spend the money for that on my new bike. Boo me.

I guess when they make the decision to take a bike they do so no matter what. I'm just glad they didn't take it whilst I was on it. That would have been worse.

Indeed, there is silver lining in all of this. Firstly it's making me walk more so I'm getting fit. Secondly, I should get more motivated to pass my full test. Thirdly, I end up with an upgraded bike without the pain of selling the other one.

I hope I can report back during the summer to say I have passed MOD1

I need a school that dedicates time on MOD1 maneuvers rather than riding around town. Let's focus on one part of the full test. I don't want to ride on the road until I have passed my MOD1. For me that is the hard part.

But most schools hold CBT courses in their offroad training area and the DAS course gets only an hour there before they are being kicked out. At least that's what happened with the school I trained with earlier this year.

PS. I'm Barnes area of London.
