not the early models

and back ontop topic. my friend got a 600 instead. good choice. i rode it didnt feel too much different to a 250. just be sensible. 50% of the accident are rider caused.

not really he is goin to sydney with his bike this year for work actually. just that he isnt hanging a L / P plate on his bike.

if caught its a 105 dollar fine. no points

Cept he will get douched if he hits a car and insurance doesnt want to pay up.

I know you lose 7 points if you drive a prohibited vehicle(instant licence loss on your P's), you would think its the same with a bike?

well nye we were on the bikes, my mate got caught on a k8 gsxr1000, only on p's., prohibited bike, no p plates... Lost his license on the spot...yea its 7 points for a prohibited bike as well.

Not sure if this is mentioned, but you can get a restrictor done for 1.5k? and then get it engineered for LAMS

Well does he know how to ride at all there are many factors that you have to take into consideration.

I mean any 250cc bike is ideal and great to learn from.
Entering corners, Balance etc... is something you have to be able to do

thats why its a LEARNER LEGAL BIKE AND IS RECOMMENDED TO START OFF WITH.

If he really wants to go for it if he plans to ride illegally then his a dumb ass its not worth getting caught and when you do be your paying the consequences lost of licence or whatever.

You can get 600's learner legal just not many people know about it

my mate has a gsxr600 K7 with L plates LOL

But him respecting the 600cc HELLLLLLLLLLLLL NOOOOOOOOOO you will not its just to much fun and you will not be able to help yourself TRUST ME. I do not believe him when he is saying that.

I'll got a CBR250 Honda great bike love it and perfect learnering.

Selling it soon cause i want to upgrade.
