Hell yeah its a 2stroke, 2strokes are awesome. speedo goes up to 240kmh (150 mph) but it probably more realistically will only do 180kmh Its fast enough..

Remember, speedometers are about 2-3 miles an hour faster than the speed you're travelling so if you want to do 100 mph aim for about 105.

Hmm, my speedo is actually a little broken, all the ones on my bike are because its the "S" version so they fitted different tyres or something and it made the speedo 20% too high, so if Im doing 100kmh its actually 80, and after what you told me riding my bike it going to eventually be a maths lesson.

Did my first ride today, it was damn easy actually. Turning is easier than I thought it would be, I did fall once, I was doing a u turn at about 10 kph, accelerated out of the gravel and the back wheel sliped and the bike fell over. I got up to about 60kmh, its a zippy little bike ^^ then some old lady come outside and said "do we have to have this all day?" because I dont have a licence I thought it would be best If I just went inside Im uploading a little video now ;D

And didn't forget. I broke my spine. Now I am paralyzed in both my feet and 50% of my legs So i didn't forget. I miss it every day. How long have you gone with out use of your legs? How long would you say it takes to get used to living like that?

How long would you say it takes to get used to living like that? In december it is a year. I have know Idea, I think it is diffrent from person to person. Many are asking my "How the hell can you be so happy?". My repli is "Shite happends and you just have to live with it". P.s I can move my legs and I can Walk....so I am not locked to my wheelchiar. It is just the backside of my legs that is paralyzed. But I have a little muscle on the backside that is not paralyzed.

If you can move your legs and walk why cant your ride a motorbike? You only need to be able to break and change gears, thats just foot movements.
you need balance of course but that's not going to be affected by a back injury.
