well just an idea i got today in ym head. when i turn 19 (if i loose my car license this week) i am thinking of getting into bikes

thing is tho, i know fcuk all about them. can i learn straight away in a 125cc or not. or do i need to get sumfin even smaller than that?

what do i need to do exactly to start off?

what is insurance like on them?

do i need to have a car license?

i really have no idea mates, just need some quick answers really

cheers

If you loose your licence I think the only bike you can have is a pushbike.

hmm...so u need a motor licence then. thats a bummer

was i right tho in thinking that if i bought a 125cc for example, i do my theory and then take a 2 day course or sumfin and can just ride with L plates on and then when i pass the test can ride something bigger?

I think if you are over 17 & have done CBT you can ride anything upto 125cc on L plates.

If you have a full car licence you can ride a 50cc moped without 'L' plates & carry a passenger.

Why the fcuk would you want to

How old are you? They might have changed the law for newer drivers.
