well, ive decided that i want to learn to ride a motorbike! the new test is coming in october, and i dont really want to rush my learning process, so i will be doing the new style one. has anyone recently learnt to ride? im thinking that seeing as i am 22 and have a full car licence and my own car, passing the test is just mearly for my own fun, not a matter of " life and death" (like my car test!), that i will just do my CBT, and buy myself a learner legal 125. the idea is then i can spend as long as i like learning how to ride safely on that, and just do my actual test whenever i feel im ready. the cbt lasts 2 years, so thats plently of time i think.

does this sound like a good idea? or is it going to be worth it more to do a DAS 5 day intensive course, and get my full licence? its quite expensive to do, and i will have to take time of work somehow. also theres the matter of getting a test booked, with the big rush and all.

also, if i do decide to stay a learner for a while, can anyone reccomend a bike for me to learn on? ideally id want to use it to commute (15 minute country/town drive) and a bit of light playing at the weekends.

thanks for any input!
