Hello all I have put it to the back of my mind for as long as I could.

I have always wanted to do my bike test. I have completed my CBT and also theory test last year and have done nothing with them.

I'm going to have to buck my ideas up as I have just bought this.






I have always liked zzrs since my dad had his zzr1100



This is the 600 version of that and I cannot wait till I pass my test and get to ride it

Absolutely go for it!

As an advertising campaign for my bike once said:

Why fly over the scenery when you can fly through it?

Just watch out for the myopic drivers out there.

Come on tom!
get on with it mate, I love cars but bikes have always been my passion, had a couple of zxr's in the past among countless other bikes, and have been riding since 1976 and the buss I feel today is still the same as when I first past my test,
Good luck with your test mate, but don't break a leg Haha.

Yes, go for it my friend. I have just sold one of those that I bought to tinker with. Awesome machine but docile enough to ride if you treat the throttle with respect. I currently ride a CBR1000f but at 70 years old it's not getting any easier to fold the old legs up on to the pegs. Do it before it's to late.
