Nothing to report yet @Markybeau but did my CBT yesterday so watch this space.

Plan is to undertake a bit more training and take the next 2 tests before my current cert expires

Going for your full A licence?

Going for your full A licence?

Aye!

Not going especially big and certainly not fast but I’m in love with these…

Hi, in the late 80s I restored this one, 1951 Royal Enfield Bullet 350, sadly I had to sell it a couple of years later due to an impending divorce.
At least I've still got the pictures!

Impressive.
Very guilty look at having been caught restoring it in the living room! At least you made the effort to roll back the carpet!

LOL, actually I completed it at my brothers house due to the toxic relationship I was going through - which resulted in the divorce!
It was in his front room - next to his Guzzi Le Mans!

That classic 350 is the modern replacement to my discontinued classic 500. I test rode it to see how the two compared. Can see why it get good reviews.

I have always had a bike since my sloped at age 16. The current one is a '99 Kwak GPZ500, a parallel twin, which I have had for almost six years now. As with bicycles I much prefer retro for motorbikes. It is quite lightweight and has reasonable usable power at 60hp, actually more than any strangled modern 500. It takes off with a howl at 8000rpm and is super smooth at an indicated 80mph. Longest day ride for me on this was 330miles and I can vouch that these bikes are all-day comfortable even for me at 5' 11". I love the cockpit with the jumbo rev counter and high clip-on style bars!
