Default Anyone used redline motorcycles on Bristol Road in longbridge??

got my bike booked in for a repair and when i asked about courtesy bike, he got a bit ars3y and offered a peugeot 50cc vivacity, and he got confused when i told him my insurance would cover me to ride so long as it was insured, registered and owned by someone other than me.

im a bit dubious as he didnt get that it had to be insured on his/shops policy aswell as me being insured to ride it.

Never assume

My examiner after passing my restricted test told me i couldn't ride a bike larger than 125cc even if it was restricted until my two year restriction was up!

You'd think he would know the rules I said he was wrong, but he wouldn't have any of it lol.
