Yeah I think you can go up to a 125cc on a car license. This won't restrict in my next choice as I have the full license. Either way you can incur the same penalties as with a large bike. I think larger bikes are safer because you dont get the same respect on the road from car drivers on a small bike.

I so wanted to get custom mirrors. Left side "Objects in mirror are hallucinations."
Right side "So just STAY COOL man"

Hooligan wide glide? Fuck yeah.

The turn of the millenia seemed to accommodate larger riders to me also I know my 03gixxer felt tiks a cruiser compared to the 06 models I sat on.

Any one seen the new honda grom? Nice to see some fiddy love in here I still ride a stock z50 and I am over 6ft......used to shove that thing in my civic for campgrounds and the beach......tried it on the golf course no bueno lol they weren't havin it.....pretty fun going for beer runs and pizza on that I bet it went 30mph or so on flats..... cops never seemed to mind and usually it seemed to give them a good laugh.

I enjoy it. once a guy came down the oncoming on a seriously kicked-out chop, laid so far back he could drown in a cloudburst. He stuck both legs straight up&out by way of a wave. Good times.

I'll never forget racing a sports bike when I was in my Sierra cosworth on the motorway. We were taking it in turns to overtake eachother. It was big fun because I was in a car and not another bike. We were hitting 130mph (my car could do much more) before I pulled back and inevitably lost my license.

If you keep your license out of the wind, you'll be less likely to lose it. ~giggling, ducking~
