Motorbikes!!!!!!!



I just went on my brother's bike down the road and back. I haven't been a motorbike before ever and the last time I rode a push bike was when I was 19. He only has a 125cc and is doing his motorbike test next week.


I only went 20mph and into 2nd gear but I'm having trouble typing, what a rush! I want I want!!!

I need some pinot to calm down

 

Pics or STFU

 

o dear

 

 

Another future organ donor

 

Love that feeling I should get a bike...........got then licence just missing the bike !!

 

GSXR1100 from back in the 80's-90's you want a rush them thing were fookin mental...and a bigger rush is trying to control one

 

What type of bike was it?

 

you cant beat the buzz of a bike but they are just too dangerous......i dont ride mine anymore and im selling it now.......just hear too many horror stories about ppl dying on them.

 

FPMSL

 

It's a Honda NSR. It looks the nuts for what it is, looks proper compared to his last bike


I know it's only a 125 and there a lot more powerful bikes out there but just riding it a couple hundred yards and back for the very first time was great! I reckon I will end up getting one eventually.

 

Good luck to you mate. One of my mates bought a 125cc scooter to go up London on everyday, we all took the p*ss but he could'nt give a sh1t, he loves it

 

Oh dear, i can see it coming "forsale E1.6 RST" and then "wanted Honda NSR 125"

 

Flog the RST, do your test and get a 600, you won't look back mate

I wouldn't dream of another shonky old Ford

 

Me neither!


Just not too sure of the "sell the RST" part. I guess I would have to......




Andy - I wouldn't be buying an NSR, I'd use Paul's once he has bought a new bike which he is going to do soon after passing his test

 

Sounds good m8

 

I got mine a few months ago and haven't touched the RST since

I keep going home to work on the car and go out on the bike instead

Recent pic up on the North York Moors:

 

Is insuring a 600 when 21-ish abit like trying to insure a 3 door when 18?

 

Nope, insuring a 1000cc is like that.

In fact my R1 is alot cheaper (and faster ) than my 380bhp saph was

 

You are kidding

Blimey i thought you'd of had a go long before now mate!!

I used to have a Peugeot 125cc SpeedFlight when i used to be a coach driver, great fun getting to and from work and into London

 

i thouroughly agree! *if* you make the jump and swap to owning a bike as your only fast toy i bet you any money you like that you'll wonder why you "wasted" so much money on fast cars! guarantee you wont look back!

as for the second part...well...erm...when i could afford it i bought another shonky old ford but only because i could afford both. already the saff has cost money. the bike costs practically nothing and is a total weapon. Tax is cheap as fuck as is fuel and general running costs. 1st time insurance on a 600 is more than reasonable at roughly Ł4-500 tpft? depends on bike and situation obviously but i bet its cheaper than the car. after a couple of years NCB the bigger bikes are easy to insure as i found out

theres only so much telling you can be given but its only after you make the switch you'll know what i mean

chop

 

ps you thought a 125 was a rush?!

imagine what a gixxer 1000 is like from start and accelerating to just over 160mph!

that was my mates bike but tbh my 750 feels quick enough too

 

 

I fancy getting one of those as a runabout

 

Keep your car and get your bike test passed then buy a crosser/enduro bike and learn how to control a bike this year. Jumping straight on a 600 with no prior bike experience is organ donor material

 

That's the route Im thinking of taking, should hopefully be a fair bit cheaper as well

 

Nonsense

 

i agree with gurne

aslong as your not stupid and take your time you will be fine i rekon

i went down to my local test centre yeterday to get some prices on what its going to cost for my direct access

never road a bike before but have owned one for 3 years

this year i will do it

 

how much is a test for bikes and lessons etc?

 

I was quoted Ł600, that's start to finish, direct access borrowing all the kit

 

I've got a bad feeling about this..........................

Until some fucker didn't see you and knocked you clean off!!!!

Tony I have a real weird image of your brother on his bike riding it!!!!!!

 

Make sure you invest in a good helmet and and good padded jacket.

Tight cut down jean shorts and a tight white t-shirt aint a good idea Andy, no matter how pink your bike

 

Already got a lid, a nice subtle Arai, its my head on the front cover of the Eurothrash site, fluorescent flames with a tinted visor - any jacket I wear is well padded

Ooh pink bike now there's an idea, it would match my jumper
