70mph on public roads 
If you pass your test before you're 21 you are restricted to 33bhp, so in theory you could go out and buy an R1 aslong as its restericted to 33BHP!
The same applies if you pass after 21, you're restricted for two years at 33bhp unles you go for the direct access course

The top speed is not far off 170mph, but i've not seen that and probably unlikely to unless i get my ass down to Snetterton on a trackday.
How's about a CS bikes only trackday?...

if you do ya test when your 17, like i did, 2 years after that you can ride anything so as soon as i was 19 got my 400
a 250 is about 33bhp
even through a 125 aprila rs is alot quicker!!!!

Just do direct access and you can ride any bike. You gotta be 21 before you can do it tho! Thats what i did last year then went straight onto my R6. Jimmy your bike looks ace, didn't like the new shape ones when they first came out, but the more i see them the more i fall in love!

I have no idea just yet, around 2.5 to 3K maybe. If I sell for the higher end I'll leave everything on including the R6 private plate. I have all the original parts in the loft as well. Just been MOT with not a single issue. Just getting it serviced next week and having the alarm looked at. I might strip the alarm off as it's causing a bit of grief at the moment. I don't really want to sell but am taking a break from bikes for a bit. Have a decent car and need to get a house sorted. Had them for the last 10 years
