Post by seb421 »

Right im thinking for this winters work horse im going to get a small Demon X 125 Pit bike

How hard would it be to put a new one on the road?

You can get a bigger one that a 125 but figure a 125 would be easier to sell on when the time comes, not been on one for a while but they are a hoot those little bikes

filler cap looks like a fail in the pic, mustn't be more than 30mm (i think) above the tank.
i know a couple of people who've done it, loadsa silly shite to get thru the test, loadsa paperwork, takes ages, costs loads.....
i've put chops and trikes thru, but not pit bikes.

Look into registering it as an enduro. You will need minimum for that, brake light, lights and a few other bits and bobs. As far as I remember its to do with seat height, its a lot easier to register enduros than road bikes.
