Alright lads!

My names Scott from Birmingham and i own an Aprilia RS50 at the moment (New shape

). Thinking about taking my test when im 17 in March and going onto a ZXR 400.

Got a few questions though. How exactly do you restrict them, whats the performance like, what will insurance be like, finaly, what will it be like jumping from a de rezzed 50 onto a 400?

Cheers,
Scott.

personally mate the zxr400 is a quality bike to choose, but i'm biased, i went from a nsr125 to my zxr400.you will love it!!

check out this thread on restrictors http://zxrworld.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.p ... estrictors

and if you read the free4all you'll see a post on performance.

hello by the way! just down the road mate!

Cheers mate! Really didnt want to give up my 50 for a 125. Know it sounds stupid but this little thing is an absolutely fantastic bike! Reading some of these threads on the ZXR makes it woth it though! looking forward to turning 17 now!

Where abouts are you in redditch?

Welcome scott

125 to 400 is a bigish jump just be careful, it'll feel well peaky to start with but after a while it wont.

Restricted ZXR does about 110mph tops, but will still feel fast after your 125.

Good luck with your test

lol, you mis-understood me. Im on a 50 at the mo

and would have got a 125, but would rather get straight on to a 400. im quite a big lad, 6 ft 1 and want to join the marines so i think i could handle the weight, just the POWARH!!!!!! that might be an issue
