Need help, Can't decide what bike to work on!

HELLO!

My Name is Kyle, I am only 15 - So I cant legally ride a bike

however, I want to get a bike now and work on it as a project

until I do my CBT. (So preferably a 125) I was wondering if anyone

could suggest a good bike to work on I like pretty much all

bikes, as long as it's not; Off-road or a scooter

Thank you for reading, Kyle.

Hi Kyle, don't forget to say hi in the newbies section

Any bike is a good one to work on, but if you plan on doing your CBT when you are 16 you will only be ably to ride a machine with a maximum 49cc. Get a bike, some tools and a haynes manual and tinker away!

How much you looking to spend?

I had a 10' Rieju RS2 50 Pro and it was fantastic, you could get a older one of those and tinker away...? or maybe a Aprilia Rs50.

Cool, it is nice to see young people who want to tinker and lern god I am showing my age

as above it will have to be a 50cc if you want to ride on your CBT at 16, but an engin is an engin, from when they first came out in ????? to now the basic principal has stayed the same, fule pumped in to a cilinder is set on fire that pushes the piston down and the next piston up!

If you have got a year to play you have got time to find a knacker and do it up (obviosly look for one that isnt too bad) but YOU WILL DROP IT as with all lerning you will make mistakes so I personaly would start with a cheap bike and work from there as your experience and ability develop

Buy a 50 or a 125 to ride when you are legal. Buy a Japanese bike, don't buy any other makes from any other countries. Buy a 4 stroke, Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki or Kawasaki

Aprilia RS50 from the old era as they had the Minerelli engine and was more chunky than the new one, which is more fragile and weaker...

Get a really tatty one as parts are a dime a dozen, then spend the next year with a Haynes manual rebuilding it, we and especially I can help you with these as mine was in bits more times that it was on the road (mostly due to me wanting to tinker) and its a great full sized starter bike...

Capable of 60mph with basic derestriction with power band set to 3000-8000rpm.

Thank you for you advice, everyone!

Will have a look over the next few months

Can't wait to started, Merry Christmas to you all,

Many thanks, Kyle.

Someone has to say it so I will ....... CG 125 (not brazil)

Harley Davidson bike is also an good option for you if you are looking for classic and legendary bikes. Harley Dvzaidson is a head turner amazing look and style this bike has.

Really?

A Harley Davidson is a good option for a 15 year old looking for a learner legal bike he can tinker with?

Are you on Heroin and drain cleaner?

i didnt laugh.

i howled

old rs50, old gpr50, that reiju 50cc thing

You could do worse than get a DT50 Yamaha to do up.

They are going up in value and are pretty goods to ride, as well as being quite fast (For a Moped)
