Bit of a motorbike update - Page 3

I passed my moto test in the mid 70s before I passed my car test. My largest bike was a suzuki gt500. Since then I'm into smaller bikes. The idea of sports bikes appals me, I use a honda 125 innova to buzz around locally, I also have a cb250 for longer rides. The 250 will keep up with the traffic and can sustain 70 over a distance. That varadevo looks the business.

Very sensible approach. Get a good bit of practise before launching yourself into the fray on a big bike.

I started off years ago on a 250. Recently a 600 and then a 1,000.--My current bike.----------130 bhp.

As others have said it's good to see you taking it slowly Thomas. Being a hypocrite I've kept my kids away from bikes though I have them. So can see why your Dad is helping you along.

I passed one test on a Honda 250T Dream years before my car test. Gone from 50 to 250 to 500 to 750 to 1700

Advice: Drive like everyone in a vehicle is a numpty.
