Any suggestions for a 125cc learner legal bike which would fit someone who is 6"2', with a 34' inside leg and weights 16 stone. Speed is not an issue, as that is obviously limited anyway. Just fitting the bike without issues such as; not being able to fully turn the handlebars without having...

From TfL. Obviously this is a real boon and we should do our best to make sure we get continued access to bus lanes. So if you haven't already, fill out the survey... http://www.tfl.gov.uk/roadusers/finesandregulations/10151.aspx

Spotted this link in SEB magazine and thought I'd post it here to encourage London bikers to take part in the survey. If you can spare a couple of minutes please fill in the survey - https://www.tfl.gov.uk/tfl/roadusers/finesandregulations/motorcycleinbuslanes/default.aspx

Hi Guys, Spotted this issue on the transalp forum, and it seems genuine enough - it really is the PM's petition website. And they really do seem to want to increase road tax for bikes to be higher than cars. So I've signed it. Its worth a try. http://petitions.number10.gov.uk/motorcycle-tax/...
