    Help re Lams List for Restricted Licence CBR600RR

    Hi,

    Wonder if anybody would know the answer to this. My husband wants to start riding a bike and is on his way to get his restricted licence. He is not sure whether a Honda CBR 600RR is OK to buy while on a restricted licence. He is really keen to buy this bike but cant see it on the list. Would be really grateful for any advice on this. Thanks

    Not a chance that this would be a learner's bike.

    I love Troll feeding.

    You can pull 2 spark plugs turning it into a cbr300rest until graduated to full licence then change it back to a 600RR.
    I have evolved as a KB member.Now nothing I say should be taken seriously.

    If you were super smart you'd pull 2 injector plugs, saves petrol, still look like a bad ass

    That's like someone asking about ferraris but you recommend they have a look at a prius.

    I was told that you can have any bike over 250cc as long as you install throttle restrictor which limits the throttle opening to only about 10% which effectively puts the effective horsepower to be 10% of original manufacture specification.

    15 seconds or less (Seriously, in this day and age do people still not look shit up?) of googling would have disproven that theory. Bike has to be less than 660CC, less than 150kw/tonne, and on this list here http://www.nzta.govt.nz/licence/gett...cles/lams.html .

    There are some restricted bikes on there, but they have to be factory restricted (IE sold that way). You can't buy a kit to restrict them down (thats a UK/European thing).

    There's no way for a CBR600RR to be learner legal (and rightly so!)
