its not the worst idea ever, if you pass your test and are sensible, nothing wrong with getting a thou.

However
fast and loud
isnt really the right attitude, probably.

but hey, you can kill yourself on a 50 easily enough, so got with whatever you can afford. Just be careful...and get some insurance quotes :wink:

So you can be the coolest kid in school and pulling all the 15 year olds outside the chip shop?

I'm just glad you'll be restricted to 33bhp being 17... so there goes the fast and loud part...

More like slow and asthmatic.

You really are asking for trouble with that kind of attitude ! Thats really the totaly wrong approch to biking !

Please never come out on a SWB ride with that attitude becuase all you will do is put the rest of us in danger !

So whats wrong with wanting a fast ,loud bike? :?
Im sure a lot of us want one/rode one/have one already :D

He didnt mention anything about wanting to ride like a tw@t and to be honest going from a learner bike,50 or 125,to a 'big' bike is always gonna be a big step,but im sure he has enough common sense to take it easy 8)

Prove me right tom :mrgreen:
Bikeless again :/

Why not? I went from a 50 that barely did 45 to a restricted divvy, fair enough its just over half the power of a sports 6, But I really don't regret it, awesome first big bike.
For the first couple of weeks even at 33bhp it scared me scenseless, but I took it easy at first and as I got used to it de restricted it to the beastly 60bhp and had no problems, apart from the crashing part :lol:
Which all seem to be at slowish speeds :|
