    I do know the test gets harder in a few months, something to do with EU regulations. I'm thinking of doing it before the new regs come in. The only thing that worries me is all bikers say you aren't a real biker until you have fallen off.

    HONDA CG125 for 1 year

    then

    BMW K100

    awesome BIG bike - excellent engineering - flat 4 shaft driven - not for a novice though: heavy at standstill.

    and the 'life saver check' - really is a life saver.

    guys thanks i do appreciate all the different views, and i would never ride without the safety gaer on, and as an alternative to leather trousers ( not a good look unless you frequesnt the blue oyster bar...) there is loads of alternatives like the kevlar jeans out there.

    anyone see the moto gp on that note?
    What a race - until Stoner lost it
