    Ride a bigger bike uninsured and don't get caught or fall off.

This can be reduced to 12 months if you successfully complete an approved course teaching advanced riding skills (provided you do the course after you have held your restricted licence for at least six months).

    Your only mistake was buying the Hyobag over the awesome CBR250rr, ZXR250, RGV250, NSR250, Aprilia RS250 (or125). These bikes are as good as it gets for road riding. My old mc22 is still my favourite bike to date.

    By this and just road ride the bitch. Within 1 week your riding will be like super bad awesome.

    Not really. don't do that. But do consider upgrading to something more 'fun' such as a CBR250rr or ZXR250c or even a 2 stroker if your experienced enough.
    Also realise, riding a 250cc bike is some of the most fun you will have in your motorcycle riding adventures. I often miss my trusty old ZXR250c.
    Nail your colours to the mast that all may look upon them and know who you are.
    It takes a big man to cry...and an even bigger man to laugh at that man.
