Got my exemption today

[Tank]

I was posting just to say i got it, but if it helps i did a lot reading of eveyones posts on here. Pictures really help. Big ups to MotosXtreme who let me sit on some of there bikes so i could get photos. The more info you can give them as to why you need an exemption the better. Its my birthday this weekend so i am hopeing my wife gets me a REALLY good prezzy. LOL

Happy birthday for the weekend !!!!!

Hope the birthday present was a good one! Insane1 kindly let us take photos of my husband on his Burgman so we were able to give "comparison" shots of that (side on and back on shots) between the scooter and my wee ginny (which he's currently riding). My husband weighs 100kg and has a very broad chest and shoulders so he can't see the mirrors on the GN - we went mainly with this as a safety issue for the exemption. We're still waiting to hear the outcome - he rang them for a status report only to be told it would take 20 working days (gulp) so the earliest he'll probably hear anything is the end of this month. Waiting with fingers crossed!

If you were able to get the excemption to stretch to 650cc then the BMW F650 is worth a look, roomy, dead easy to ride and no nasty suprises to catch a newer rider out. Depends entirely on whether you want that particular style of bike though, I have to admit they do nothing for me, although they are nice to ride.

Happy birthday for the weekend!

Yea that was the hardest part for me was the waiting. If i had gone just looking for 250s then found a good one, bought it, only to find i got an exemption. Or looked for a bike of some size found one and waited to find that i didnt get it. But the wait is worth it.
