If i remember rightly there the often purple coloured bikes with a front disc and rear drum? look almost slightly cruisery. if you could get me a price thatd be great,to be honest im not bothered about condition or anything just to do the test on again. As most test bikes id expect wear and tear and drops, and the engine to have had a hard life.
So get me a price and we can negociate. Cheers deej

Long story short the one i was at are refusing to loan me there bike due to my "legal guardian aka parents" insisting i dont do the test as they think im going to buy a 600 and become a tree seeking missile.
Hence the company wont loan the bike out.
Last fail was on making a car brake, and steering on a roundabout due to speed,
so i dont think im that far off, hence wanting to give it one more crack before i give in.

I was with A+
i cant knock the training, but i cant understand why they let me do my training and test on it once, and now because of something the old dear's said have stopped me hiring it :x
Annoying really, as i had planned to give it one last go at the test, if i fail again i wont try again but its seemingly hard to even hire 125s for it these days.

Branson! And I don't work there now, so I'm not plugging it :) But yeah they do something called a BM125 which is basically a CG with Branson on the tank. Think its just over a grand, worth a look if you're passing.

Nice idea, but i question the build quality straight off :lol:
to be honest im not really looking on spending a grand as im just trying to use it to pass the test and move on up, if i did buy one from branson the depreciation would be killer i bet as soon as i left the show room.

@Tom - Nah doing the test in weston super mare, but they train me around bridgwater then weston, The other schools ive phoned have said they wont hire out without something silly like 3 days training which im not prepared to do to be honest, although someone has pm'd me through swb telling me about one they work for which im going to phone on monday to see if they can help me out.
