Hey everyone,
I live in Western Australia and just recently purchased my first road bike, a 2000 GPX 250 (have to ride for a year on a 250 licence before I can get anything bigger). Being riding dirt bikes since I was about 7 or 8 and am loving riding on the road now

Is that a requirement in Australia?

welcome maz. I live in a place called Iowa. I have a new vulcan 800 that I've never rode yet because of the weather. maybe that might happen in a few weeks. I've heard Austraila is the place where the men are men and the sheep know it. is that true?

Yeh, one of the laws over here. We're restricted to a 250 for the first year of having our licence then can get an open class licence. Give me a year and I'll be looking for a Ninja. At least we're in the middle of summer over here, nice warm and dry weather for riding. And the sheep jokes are meant for New Zealand not Australia

That's an interesting law. I wonder how many people would break that law if they tried it in the States.

GPX 250

I think that a 250cc limit would be great for the first year...with waivers(?) for locations such as cities, and suburban areas in the US of A. I don't know what a GPX 250 is though...
