      If you accidentally ended up on a motorway (still displaying l plates) was wondering what the law is surrounding this if you get pulled?

        Think of it this way buddy. If you end up on the motorway by accident, imagine yourself to be Usain Bolt, gtfo like there's no tomorrow. The police will have a field day with you if they catch you on the motorway and get your bike impounded. Alternatively just get the L (Noob) plates removed.

        I don't have L plates but I wouldn't dare going onto the motorway, on a R125 you will be feel like the fat lad in PE.

        Ok so if you dont get pulled youre alright? Or are cameras an issue?

        The cameras shouldn't be an issue. ANPR cameras only check insurance/mot/tax afaik and speed cameras don't detect L plates. But if you was to get a ticket on the motorway with an L plate visible they could use that against you, but then again it would be pretty hard to go that fast on a R125 anyways lol.

        Changed my mind now. I guess is just the shock when you see it for the first time the big change. After watching the video again I think it looks really good now

        I think its ugly as damn, if it wasnt for those headlights underneath itd be nice looking but they completely ruin the whole front end and i prefer the underseat exhausts on the old one too

        The old r1 headlights were far better

        haha im only doing them so i can get my license out the way for when im older, ive decided im gonna hold out on my bike test till im 19 cause if i pass now i have to take another test when im 19 to get a bigger bike anyway so might aswell just wait. it just felt really weird, like on a bike you almost feel part of it whereas in a car it was like i wasnt fully in control, i dunno :L

        They will fit, but it depends whether they sit in a good position to see from...

        alpinestars sp-8 are a great budget leather racing glove. perfect for summer and perfect for colder days too if you just add an inner glove!

      Cheapest you can get a rear Pirelli Sport Demon for? As I currently have a different rear tyre and am wondering if I should change it

        You shouldn't really have two different types of tyres, so i'd deffo get a new rear.

        Sport demons around £80-£90 plus fitting
