Hi guys im doing my a2 in a few weeks and wanted to know a few things; what can i ride upto once ive passed i believe it has to be 33bhp restricted ? What cc would i go up2 as i fancy a crf supermoto or a ktm exc but i dont think a 450 will be fine as over the 33bhp ? Cheers
you can ride any cc bike you like (even a hayabusa) but you have to have it restricted to 33bhp, i beleive the crf 250 is around that figure (don't quote me though) this is a common problem as most bikes are either 125s or over 33bhp, you are limited to very few bikes, i have a fairly comprehensive list: (note that some are import only and some are like hen's teeth to get hold of) Beta Euro 350 Honda Rebel 250 GB250 Steed 400 CB400 FT500 XL500S XL500R BROS400 GB400TT NV400C VRX400 MAGNA250 CB250RS CB250NH XLR250 XLR250Degree XR250 Kawasaki KE175-D Z200-A Estrella 250 KL250-C Z250-A Z250-B Z250-C EL250-D/F KL250 D7 KLX250-G Suzuki Goose 350 DR350S Intruder 400 DR250S Desperado 400 DR400S SP400 SP370 GS250T GSX250E GT200 GT250E LS650F SB200 LS400Savage LS400Tempter SX200 VS400 TS185ER TS250ER GN250 DR350SE LS650P RV200 Yamaha DT175MX RD200DX RS200 SRV250 XS250SE XS250 XT250 SRX250 Drag Star 400 SRX400 SR500 SR250 XV250 XT350 SDR200 TT250 Serow 225 SR400 SR500 Tricker 250 Also there are a few 125s that are near the 33bhp limit, the RS125 (full power), the NSR 125 (FP) and the TZR 125. personally i would get somthing a little bigger and pay to have it restricted, although a kawasaki kmx200 would be a great unrestricted bike, wheelie like hell. If you are looking to restrict, this website has a fairly comprehensive list of the restrictors available; http://www.fiinternational.com/Restrictors.asp to find your local dealer, drop them an E-mail with your phone area code included somwhere, they will track them for you.
Forgot the GSXR 400's wobbly imp: (the slingshots look the dogs) Passed my theory today, done a lesson and my trainer reckoned 2 more to get rid of bad habits and im ready to sit it FI international are fucking expensive (like £100 for 4 washers and a certificate!) but its the only one i know of...
