Well - after a string of bad luck (over 2 years worth - I must have pissed someone off somewhere!) things are finally looking up as I can now say I own a roadbike! Bought a CBR250RR to get through the licences - what do people think of this bike?

Good on ya! Know that you have been keen for a whiles now! And yep, long as you look after the bike, it will give you plenty of fun to learn on.

Just keep practising and being aware of your riding environment! :yes:

See you on the road mate.

You OK for insurance? I know a guy who can help if you can't get it sorted.

With the amount of wax I put on I won't need a helmet buddy.

And yes I'll have to head out on the track but will need to upgrade my skills before I head out with the pros!

Bit more powerful, but mine was butchered before I got it - it had a RVF or VFR front on it (With USD Forks). It went well though. Very reliable etc.
