I passed my CBT in November 2008 when i was 18 and have been riding a 125CC bike since then, im now 19 and wish to purchase a bigger bike (after riding a friends Honda CBR600). Is there any legal way i can get a bigger bike, or will i have to wait untill im 21 and pass my full test?
 
I'm not 100% but in Ireland you can only ride 125cc if you're under 16.
Up to 250cc for under 18s.
and theres no limit apart from insurance over 18.
You dont state where you're from, but I'd say go for a 250 until you pass your full test, then go nuts, you'll have been riding for years and the insurance wont hurt as much when you're 21 as it will now.
 
you need to be 21 and have a full bike licence to ride anything bigger than a 125cc and the test is changing this year to make it harder.
