I only payed £300 for insurance on my DT last year. (17). And over the months its **** all really.
32 i dont feel so bad now reading theres a loada you proper old boys compared to me still ( get in lol)
As for the L plates there goin soon defo by the 7 month or ill have to retake a cbt. i had first proper lesson this morning the instuctor today said my bike riding an handling was beautifull top of the group iv just gotta kick some bad habits
i know that one you have to think real hard nowerdayz when sum1 asks your age. Ohh yeah dont get me wrong m8 the dtr's for life just a full licence i want the dt's stayin.even when the restrictions over im doin that restriced licence for 2 years thing. may get a gsxr or cbr for nippin long journey back to colchester to see my son an that
yeah its a lot easier to spend ur wad on bike tests etc wen ur young n not got wife kids mortgage etc n ontop of all that wages are ****ty but cost of livin n petrol is soarin up so im stayin as i am , gets me where i need to n i love my DT ! coast n back from derbyshire that'll do me if your young n readin this sod gettin married n kids do ur test first wish i had 30 yrs ago n wud av been a hell of a lot cheaper/easier than now Dave
Why i ride a DTsm at 40 with L plates with 2 fooked knees and when i have a car with leather heated seats,aircon disc changer and stuff ill never know.
Ive tried twice to sell up and enjoy my twilight years but when these bikes get in your blood you have to go with it.
My son has 4 years till 17 so i quess he may end up takin over.
oh forgot to mention,insurance £103 for a 2006 DTsm,,,,have it

my old man is 58, 59 the 9th of this month and rides a Yamaha WR 125 X on L plates, I keep trying to tell him to rid that slow ass piece of **** and get a DT, but he's one of those who are adamant that a 4stroke will always outlive a 2 stroke (even tho there are probably more classic 2-T's out and about from like 1970's - 1990 that what there are 4-T.) also, his insurance is £67.98 TPFT for a year... Mine on my DT at 24 is £87 TPFT (with a full licence) per year =D
