Well done Tunnie. :-* :-* :-*

I passed my bike test on a Suzuki bloop,well B120 actually. :-* :-*

I 'am surprised that you can take your test on a 660cc machine.I was only allowed to ride up to 125cc on "L" plates. :-* :-* :-*

It works a bit different now, i took a CBT which limits me to 125cc and its valid for 2 years.

Because i am 24 and over the 21 limit, i have to take the test on a bike over 500cc to get the direct access (so i can ride any bike)

I really do like that Yamaha MT, its not silly fast, its fun easy ride and pulls like a train, great around town and on the twisty lanes!

Too expensive for now.  Get yourself an easy to maintain cheapo bike this year, look at changing when you outgrow it in a year or 2 :)

Well done on passing at last :y

600cc sportsbike, probably 0-60 sub 5s (if you can keep the front down), and will pull to about 155ish...
