    Im 16 and I have an A1 licence, I have an Aprilia Rs50:D but I was wondering if I would be able to drive a Honda NSR 125 on my licence? Thanks

    this would be better in the motorbike section but as far as i know, max for a 16 year old is 50cc. after 17 you can go up to 125cc/33bhp.

    A1 = Motorcycles up to 11kW and up to 125cc with or without a sidecar
    Does the NSR 125 exceed 125cc?

    I'd stay on the 50 for the year, then get your A licence when you're 17 with 1 years NCB and then move onto something bigger

    tbh i wouldnt even look at going from a Rs50 to a nsr :rolleyes:

    the Rs is a sweet machine.. at least get another rs 125.. 250 is prob dreaming..
    a nice cheap alternative insurance wise and a animal to go (for a young fella) are zxr 250s :cool: hard to find a clean one thou..

    An NSR125 is over the power limit for an A1 licence. I think you can get restricted ones, these tend to be 03 and newer though

    you can ride an rs125 on an a1 licence but the insurance would be painfull.
