Hi Dave
Got my bike from Street Bike, at the top of Mucklows hill, Halesowen, nice bunch of guys in there! they just done headlight mod for me, although it has to go back in again as the dipped light stays on when main beam is used, lol

Yes Streetbike my local main dealer-a friendly bunch-have had 2 bikes from them in past. Sometimes I buy stuff from them and sometimes internet-have found Busters & M&P Direct good. My Thou came from CMC Cannock-again a nice outfit to deal with. Shame about the Bank holiday weather but lots of time yet for sunshine and rides out! Guess its computer biking for me today!

Hi Steve,
i have a friend who is currently riding a YBR 125 on L-plates. She cant afford to take her test until she finishes her degree course in a year or so, by which time it will be even more of an obstacle course to obtain a full bike licence. The "unspoken" official attitude seems to be something along the lines of... If we keep making it more difficult people wont bother and go straight into "cages" where the only regulations concerning power output,performance etc is financial(insurance etc). Seems a great shame that future potential riders will be discouraged from starting by the complexity of the procedure-there again we live in a very risk-averse society-all sorts of health & safety nonsense being spouted forth.
I was one of the lucky ones who started riding in the 60s-trouble is when the present crop of riders hang up their boots who will replace them? Rant over!

Hi Dave, yes know exactly what you mean, i done mine 17 years ago and done the complete lot on a 3 day course, it does seem realy difficult now, but it it helps take the kids off the roads with bikes then all well and gud, at least this way the new system should be getting people riding who are serious about riding bikes and not the ones who want to be trafic wardens or pizza delivery guys lol.

Yeah! Another Fazer8 member. We'll be up to double figures soon
I went to Selly Oak hospital when I was 3, fell down the stairs. Still got the dent on the top of my head.
