i've given him your name, he'll pm you, still has them aparently. he says he's working all week, but is off on the weekend. he lives at stone, and we've been planning a meet for months, but then the weather went bad and then it snowed... we're thinking of meeting up on sunday, so if you can get the bike through it's mot on saturday, you gonna join us?
I do 700 miles a week in all weathers including snow, that's roughly 35,000 miles a year, and some weekend warrior biker has the nerve to get out of his Audi at work to tell me to I was riding far too fast in the wet (over taking at 50... fast eh?).

erm, why? Suppose you wanna make sure you've got your full 33bhp I guess. My mate's got a restricted gsxr600 that tops out at 90. A 33bhp RS125 should be able to do 125mph! i think it's a bit over restricted. Still, if you're under you can just file out the inside of the restricotrs to open them up a bit. I didn't get into biking until I was 22 so went straight in with a Direct Access, never been restricted. if I was though, it'd be 125cc 2 strokes all the way. Might as well get a nice weight advantage while you're at it!

9 years? have you been waiting since you were 12, or are you 24 or sommit? If so why get a restricted licence, it doesn't help your insurance. Upgrade dude!

:pmsl no mate its called a young family and work but not getting enough money to pay for it

am looking into upgrading my licence lol
i wanted a restricted licence due to the cost of getting it plus i enjoyed riding a small bike

but now i live further a field from work i needed to upgrade to a slightly bigger bike to take the strain of the constant riding in all winds and weathers
plus get me to work quicker and so i can visit family as i live loads further away
