    Well i never had a problem with the u-turn, they give you a nice wide road anyway, im 17 so i did the restricted test on a 125, and its not as hard as they make it seem, he saw i could ride ok, dont mess up ur turns and emergency stop, and its easy, i recommend you hire a 4 stroke 125 though, it would be a pig doing it on a Rs125.

    Well make me an offer, i dont want a stupid amount for it, it runs fine, starts all the time, even in this weather, never needed to bump start it etc, im in loughton essex, just outside of london, best bet would be to come and look at it, as i said, only marks are on the back on both sides, just under the rear seat.
    Let me know,

    If you pass your test on a 125cc bike, you can ride a "big" bike so long as it's restricted to 33bhp for 2 years.

    I think you were refering to Accelerated access which is where you've passed your 125 test, have turned 21, are in your 2 year restricted period, and want to be able to ride any bike unrestricted right away. Thats when you take another test: Accerated Access.(This is done on a "big" bike)

    Then of course you have the other route, DAS (Direct Access) for people over 21, wanting direct access to full powered "big" bikes.

    the test i plan to do isnt the 125cc one as u can only ride a 125 untill u take the second test. the test im doing is on a 125 but i can ride up to a restricted 600 and after 2years any size.

    im not 21+ so the direct test aint good for me.
