RichRoberts Posted September 12, 2005 Posted September 12, 2005 Anybody know the sorta average speed a 125cc will go? Also is 125 the highest you can go till your 21?
cemo1985 Posted September 12, 2005 Posted September 12, 2005 I've had 3 125cc bikes and the top speed normally depends. You will probaly be looking at around 70-90mph depending on what u have. And yes that is true about the 21 thing.
RichRoberts Posted September 12, 2005 Author Posted September 12, 2005 Cheers! Are 125's allowed on the motorway?
cemo1985 Posted September 13, 2005 Posted September 13, 2005 Only if you have a full motorcycle liscence.
rachyxx Posted September 13, 2005 Posted September 13, 2005 the only way to ride a large bike before the age of 21 is if you pass your test on a 125 at 17, then you are restricted for 2 yrs to 33bhp then at 19 you can ride a big bike!! sweet
Brown Posted September 13, 2005 Posted September 13, 2005 My basketball team are motorbike mad.. I don't know much, but one has a Fazer, one has a Daytona Triumph (995 i think) and one has an Hyabusa which I am yet to get a glimpse of my other friend bought an R6 four weeks ago. Nice I'm tempted to get a lil scooter.. save me some money

furry Posted September 14, 2005 Posted September 14, 2005 had my r6 coming on 4 years now, best toy i ever bought wouldn't sell it for the world did 300miles on it last year so hardly used it.costs me approx £200 a year to tax insure and mot it.

Its my mates first bike.. he pays £1080 for the Insurance (Lol). I thought he was a bit of a loon for buying such a powerful bike straight out, but hey..
Wr1ghty Posted September 16, 2005 Posted September 16, 2005 I just got one of these! 17, 1yr NCB, £570 per year to insure... 33BHP restricted though, but still shifts Still wearing it in, just done 362 miles in under one week, let alone a year! BTW nice R6 , someone at work has just got a brand new one, very very nice peice of kit!
Trig Posted September 16, 2005 Posted September 16, 2005 a mate of mine had a mito, he de resticted it and got 120 out of it (not on a public road of course )
85rob Posted September 16, 2005 Posted September 16, 2005 if i had somewhere safe to keep a bike then id have one, i dont like the idea of keeping one out on the road in all weather for anyone to touch. did some researching into it and for 3-ish grand i could pass my tests buy and insure a bandit aswell as helmet n clothes.
