Let Me Introduce My Self

[GsxrNick18]

Hello and good morning or afternoon! Hope everything is going well!
A little about me; I'm 18 years old and ride a gsxr 1000. I've been riding motorcycle for 3 years now and loved every bit of it! I call Florida home, loving the weather most the time.. I say most because, some of you may know, when it rains, it pours.
I'm work as a cook for temporary, waiting until November to go to boot camp for the Air Force!
Also just got a camera setup and started making YouTube videos. Check my channel out: Senpai Moto. It's pretty fresh with only 3 vids so far.

If anyone wants to ride sometime Hmu. Live near Gainesville BTW.

Welcome. That seems like a big bike for a youngster. Different licence laws compared to the UK.

Yeah I figured it was time to get something big and fast. What's the sizes 18 year old can get in the UK?

Not 100% on this as the licence categories are confusing;

16yrs - 50cc (Learner plates)
17yrs - 125cc (Learner plates)
19yrs - Engine power restricted to 47hp.
21yrs- Can take full unrestricted test if they have held a restricted licence for 2 years.
24yrs - Can take full (DAS) test which enables unlimited licence.

In UK the maximum engine capacity you can ride on learner plates regardless of age is 125cc.

I started riding at the age of 43, had a 125cc Yamaha (still have it). Then 3 days after taking test at age 44 I bought my Fireblade.

I suppose I am! I love the power but I've had my eye on an electric one
