    How's the bike search coming along?
    It's going alright. I have my eyes set upon a CBR250RR... The only downpoint is that the new regulations about to happen some time this year would restrict me from riding it as it would be too powerful. aaah

    No - that wont be right.

    The law will roll in slowly. If you get the bike now and have been riding it - it will not 'all of a sudden' become illegal.

    Honest guv.

    I don't think that they will be not allowed. Only 2-stroke 250s are too powerful in the 250 range.

    Well I can say both myself and my wife both rode as if we had our full while on learners and it was fine. Ive owned a bike since I was 9 so noway I could stand 70km on the open road.

    Don't drive like a dick, and have some confidence (i.e. go to a driving course if that what you need) theres no reason to pull you over is there?

    Dont muck around and move from your learner to restricted as soon as your able

    Exactly the thought that I've got in my mind! It'd be good to throw away the stupid L plate.
