Riding Abroad at 19!
 

Now whats the ruling on this cos i'm goin portugal next year and i've seen a few bike hire places with 650's and other bikes available, some of them say you only have to be 18, insurance etc is included in most prices. Am i allowed to ride abroad on another bike?

Heres an example - Go into the 650 SLR bike and its says 18 and that you need a motorbike licence, well i got that obviously :lol: but can i ride it and not get into trouble??

Wouldnt ride like a goon out there anyway, just summit for me and the grandad and maybe the missus to get out on if we're bored etc.

Mucho Grassyass!

Bump :( No-one reads this section? :(

Bike license and credit card is usually all you need. Shop around when you get there.

Had a tdm850 when i was in Majorca 20yr old(long time ago!), full car with only Part1/CBT bike. ;) ...so anything is possible.:)

You worry too much!:thumbsup:

I don't know a lot about rules on hiring abroad (I always thought you had to be 21) , but I went to France on my bike in July and I was 18, so the age shouldn't be an issue as far as riding goes. :)

Wouldn't think the age will be a problem. What might be a problem though is whether it legally needs to be restricted to 33bhp or not?

Thats what i sorta mean, or whether the bikes are just restricted anyway
