[size=1em]25kW is the limit for non-DAS people who passed before Jan 19th this year. The figures below say that newly qualified A2 riders can have a go though.[/size]
I know, the bastards. And to boot, our beloved Fazers are no good for A2 license holders.
The Fazer 600 has a nominal power production of 95bhp. But 2 x 35kW = 93.872bhp. And knowing our current legislation, that 1.3 extra horsepower will be enough to prevent it from being rideable for new riders.
The scariest thought of all - two speeding tickets, and I won't be allowed to ride my Fazer, even after restest! :'( :'(
