next bike 33bhp

Post by Rs2boy »

hi, im 17 soon and cant wait to get my next bike! One of my friends says he is getting a restricted honda 400cc !
Is this legal? If so would it be a better idea to go for a restricted yamie r6 or an aprilia rs125? i no what i would choose :D lol

Cheers :)
Watch it my 50 does 170mph! honest! lol

Sorry about that Rs2Boy, couldn't stop myself.

Once you have passed your restricted test then you can have almost any size, as long as it is restricted to 33bhp for two years....

What about a busa :wink:

you got to go for a "restricted" option..
it just means one less transaction where you will probably line some other f*****s pockets in a "deal" changing bikes...

Glad to hear it, its not their only problem. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Hornet is a really nice bike, I didn't realise AT was restricted. Come to that Losty moves his restricted SV around pretty fast at times.
