    In my opinion my friend i dont think that cc matters all that much its more about the hp and also about the confidence of the driver. If you believe your able to do it around 50hp for a 'begginer' bike is all right but after that you should aim for 70 to 90 hp for a second bike and the jump to a 130 to 160 hp bike because the difference is a lot bigger

      I like this idea, not thought about it this way but you're right. It's about the torque and responsiveness of the throttle too. it probably is a lot more complex than just the cc

      I get what you're saying but I started on a 2010 zx6r around 120 bhp then jumped straight to a s1000r with 165bhp and honestly think it was the best way to do it..

    I am turning 23 in a month, cbt booked, don't know if I will have the patience to wait till I can do the full A license, might just do the A2 and get a restricted mt-07. Also I was really confused by your speedo, took me a minute to figure out it was in km/h lol

    • @GSXRBrit
      @GSXRBrit  7 днів тому

      What would be the plan If you were old enough for the full licence? Like what bike would you get?

    • @ahmadalwadi9156
      @ahmadalwadi9156 7 днів тому +1

      @ The path would probably be an MT 07 as a first and then an R1, (mark 1)

    • @GSXRBrit
      @GSXRBrit  7 днів тому

      Yeah that seems like a good plan then, that R1 MK1 is going to be a beast and a handful

      I'm going through the process of getting my full A license at the moment. Just something to keep in mind if you do get through your mod 1 and mod 2, you'll need to do it again to go from A2 to full A. Also if you aren't doing a DA course (which are bloody expensive) and just doing lessons as you need them and booking tests when you feel ready, it can take months depending on where you are due to test waiting times.
      So it might not be that much of an extra wait, but it all depends on how you go about getting tested. Either way best of luck and happy riding :)

    Anyone more or less can ride any bike , its up to you how much u turn the throttle, learn and respect it.

    UK riders don't start on 1000cc you do your test on smaller bike even if you doing direct access

    • @GSXRBrit
      @GSXRBrit  7 днів тому

      No but I started on a 790 and the recommendation for a starter is a 400

    This isn't completely true doesn't matter if past your test you have to be over the age of 24 then you can ride anything. If not your limited to the cc of a bike...

    • @GSXRBrit
      @GSXRBrit  7 днів тому +1

      Yeah I should have mentioned this only applies to an over 24 but it adds to my point that we have a more rigorous testing system
