Moped or quad, but as my old man told me..........

^ everything there is true, but a Moped going over jumps would be more badass than a normal bike

Until it breaks :lol:

Moped = CHAV!

Seriously, we have little moped crews in our town who go around on their scooters haha so funny, the noise is the funniest part, i believe it goes something like this: eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

I've just sent off for my provisional, won't be buying anymore guitar gear for a while, probably selling a bit of it to pay for lessons!
Oh yeah £45 for a drivers license!! what a rip

Thats awesome!! How much did it cost?

I`d love a cool bike like that but most of the ones I have seen have been wimpy rust buckets :P

In today's money, about 500 Euros..........and alot of elbow grease. It was a rust bucket when I got it.

My previous beast. You could but the 50cc version when you're 16.

Bloody expensive to run though. Mine (125 version though) cost about £500-£600 every 6000km for a service, used nearly as much fuel as my mates Scooby. I also blew the engine (pulling a stoppie) which cost me £1,200 to fix, but then only got me 12 miles on the rebuilt engine.

Absolute hoot when it works though :P

hmm... whats the driving age over there?

Will · « **Reply #23 on:** August 17, 2007, 08:52:57 AM »

16 for mopeds / 50cc or less
or tractors for that matter
17 for cars (and they keep trying to up it)

theres even an age for mopeds? thats rediculous. in california you can drive at 15! thats a bit young though, i think 16 is the right age.
