  Riding a bike at slow speed is more fun than driving a normal car at high speed

  Mate, never ride a bike without gloves, if you come off (which you inevitably will do if filtering every day) you will spend months in rehab, and that's the best scenario!

  the addiction never disapeares, once you've experienced the closest thing to pure freedom you only want more. get that full licence and enjoy the beautiful planet we are gifted with my man

  I rode 125s in my teens to get around from A to B but then got my drivers license at 21. Tried the motorcycle theory test and failed it, and parked the idea aside. 15 years later and I got my full motorcycle license. Best thing I’ve done with my life

  I passed my A1 test last year on my own bike, Yamaha Xmax 125 scooter, age 59. No lessons, just learned by watching tones of YouTube videos.  I don't have any intentions of sitting a full big boy licence as my 125 does everything I need, on the motorway 65-MPH on the straight, uphill 58 but I'm cool with that and anyway, I don't like fast speeds, for me its the enjoyment and freedom. Stay safe and happy biking.

  Nice video mate, but take some advice and wear gloves at all times otherwise someone will be taking you to loo for the next 6 months. <br>I see it all the time,the first thing to hit the deck when you go down is the hands

  I am glad to see you started wearing gloves and a proper lid, when you do get a bigger bike go at least 600cc, you need 70+ horses, don&apos;t be tempted by 350 to 400ccs they are still not enough for real world big road stuff. If you can find an older bike as well they are far more reliable and rewarding and do not have electronic fripperies that break and cost a fortune to fix. I would look for a bike pre 2012 at least 600ccs. You can get an 5th Gen, 6th Gen Honda VFR800, or a Suzuki SV650 for a couple of K and these bikes are still amongst the best ever made.
