50cc Motorbike

Hi Guys,

I am thinking of getting a 50cc motorbike when im 16, im looking at spending £1000 at the most for one and going third party.

2 questions - what do you think i will lose in total from insurance, descrease in value and everything like that?

Also i am thinking of getting de restriced is that a good idea?

Thanks
Dan

P.S Anyone got any advice on a bike to get?

hi m8

imo i would get the cheapest 50cc motor you can, for the simple reason that in 1 years time you will either scrap/sell it for either a 125cc ( thats where the real fun is) or get yourself a car

ive been a biker for a while now and i started on a honda MT5 then moved up to a honda MTX 125cc out of all of the bikes i have had i can say without a word of a lie the MTX 125cc was one of the best, most reailable bikes i have ever owned. MT5->MTX->suzuki Gsx250->Honda VFR 400RR ( nice and fast, but also great for losing your licence Smile->yamaha XT 600

so i suppose itys up to you m8, if you get a bike and you really like it, get yourself and 125 and you will love it, i have both my bike and car licence and tbh i hate driving around in a car, once you have been on a bike i think you will understand.

as far as insurance goes, your goner get stung at 16, most insurance companys are going to look at you and rip you a new one Smile so 1 way around this is if your parents are feeling brave is too get your dad to insure the bike for you and have you as a named driver Smile then once you hit 17 you should fine that the insurance has goner down alot where you shoudl be able to afford it yourself Smile

hope this helps bud
