Hey guys! I'll be turning 24 later this year and so I'm going to get me a license!
I could have gotten my license years earlier, but the law here is weird. If I would get my license now, before I turn 24, my max is 125cc bike. I would have to rock that two years to be allowed to get a 35kw bike... Now you understand why I have waited
My favourite brand is Aprilia, probably because I have had Aprilia mopeds.
The 2003 SBK (best livery ever made) RS50
Really liked driving it and did the tuning thing too. But on a beautiful day I made the mistake to overtake my mom, not thinking clearly, she freaked out when she found out it was going a little bit faster than I told her. To my amazing my dad tricked her into buying me a brand new one if I promised not to tune it ().
Of course I couldn't resist it But it was all good and never had any major problems, just tickets.
What bike do I want? This is where its gets difficult. I like so many bikes, I really can't decide... I have friends who drive bikes and occasionally I drive them too, but I have too little experience to decide what was nice. Need more time but I don't want to lose my license before I even have it...
Size is important, I'm on the large side. Around 1.90m, somewhere between 85/95 kilos. First real bike I have ever driven was a RS250, awesome bike, but too much maintenance. After that I hopped on a RSV R Mille;
I feel quite big on that bike but in the same way pretty comfortable. The bike was quite heavy to throw around but with my size it was okay. I would like to buy this bike but in Nori Haga replica colours Like my first RS50!
I have driven the new RSV4 too, that was very cool What a bike Unfortunately I don't have RSV4 money so its just a picture of me on a RSV4....
My knees are around the same hight as my hands and that felt pretty nice, so I'm looking for something like that. I have driven a friends Z750 and his SXV550. I have the feeling that SXV550 will be excellent, though very bad for my license. The Z750 was very good and comfortable but it lacks excitement. It has too many cylinders. That brings me to the Aprilia Dorsoduro 750, I'm looking at this bike with serious thoughts, this is one of the bikes I want to drive.
I think this would be perfect for me to have fun, play around and be able to drive to work everyday (~20km vice versa). I have seated on this bike and for my length it feels very comfortable. Can't wait to test drive this My other option would be the RSV Mille R or the R Factory. If I would get the RSV R Mille, it has to be the one from 2003 in the Haga colours.
And I need clothes, pretty soon. I want clothes before I'm starting to take lessons, I find it very nasty to put those clothes on they have for you. I'm pretty sure I don't want to wear leather, not because I'm vegan or whatever but I just don't like the look of it.
This jacket I like a lot:
With these (I don't think the long ones fit??)
And as an helmet I like the one with the flip up system. After checking a lot of brands I think I like this one the most:
It looks pretty normal and the overall design looks nice. Includes sun shield what is a must!
But for the rest, I really have no idea.. Only thing I know is I'm going to get my license soon. Help is much appreciated 👍
And thanks for reading
