Rake aboot 4,936 Posted December 17, 2015 Report Share Posted December 17, 2015 Did mine decades ago ! lol Have run allsorts, from Harleys to Lambrettas. Ran a BMW GSA round Europe twice, and have traded it for a 1700cc Harley. Have 4 scooters tucked away as well, and have access to a pile of other bikes. Ran supermoto for 7 yrs and was fast as feck on them as well, but was getting too big for my boots so got asked to calm down and buy something sane. Pass yer test, but ffs buy somit calm for a bit, don`t make the mistake plenty have and go straight out and buy a Blade. ATB Quote Link to post Share on other sites
downsouth 8,038 Posted December 17, 2015 Report Share Posted December 17, 2015 I did it in 2001 when I was 40 (ahem). However I never got myself a bike (yet). I did ride a couple of quick bikes for a bit, but they were sports bikes and at 6' 4" I am knackered just sitting on them! I am thinking again about getting something more appropriate for me though. I quite fancy a classic or something not new like a 1970s Suzuki GT750. Here's one i restored a few years back Day i bought it Took nearly 18 months to restore Very nice.I had a 380 and a 550 many years ago. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
