Re: Scooter for a 16 year old
If anyone does ride a moped on those rights without L-plates. If they then take their CBT to ride a 125 do they have to start displaying the L-pates on the 50cc too? I've never CBT'd a punter so he can ride a 50 in a car licence. Maybe he had a 125 for 2 years then didn't bother and went to a 50. W...

Re: Scooter for a 16 year old
If anyone does ride a moped on those rights without L-plates. If they then take their CBT to ride a 125 do they have to start displaying the L-pates on the 50cc too? From how I understand it,upon completion of a CBT with full car licence you can ride a 50 without L plates and carry pillions effecti...

Re: Scooter for a 16 year old
I don't think so. Unless they made a new rule recently. Old mopeds are UK national cat 'p' 30mph which is different to EU-wide cat 'AM', which is 45km/h and other jazz. It's close, but not exactly the same. Maybe that's where it's coming from, rather than the gears themselves. I do know the c50 sem...

Re: Scooter for a 16 year old
The Gilera DNA used to be a popular half bike half scooter. They were popular when I was younger along with the runner. I always fancied a runner but wasn't a fan of the DNA. They had issues with water ingress in the dashboard which caused problems. I CBT'd a few lads with DNAs. They ride quite nic...

Re: Scooter for a 16 year old
Thanks for the feedback guys. I will take it all into concideration. Idiot ex suggested getting an electric assisted bike, as he can drive it now. When I pointed out the go 15mph, and would not have enough range to do his journey, she backed off. Then she was talking about a brand new £1800 scooter...

Re: Scooter for a 16 year old
There's a bit of a loophole if I remember right that the geared 50s aren't classed as mopeds and not legal for 16 year olds. I'm not sure where I seen it though I don't think so. Unless they made a new rule recently. Old mopeds are UK national cat 'p' 30mph which is different to EU-wide cat 'AM', w...

Re: Scooter for a 16 year old
Try and find a Speedfight or other two stroke 50cc scooter. There are loads of them over here (not that that helps you), many easily doing over 40mph, probably because of different rollers. Work used to buy me a new helmet every 12 to 18 months, so had more than a few top of the range Arai's, Schub...
