Thank you for the advice, they are plastic and are made for correct grading for safety, so most likely will come off during a crash, they aren't made of foam as they have holes so that air can pass through but I can see why that could be a problem.

I think my riding for riding sake is going to come over time, I've enjoyed my experience on the back of a bike and will probably enjoy when I'm in control of it even more.
Yeah going to be a fun time, especially as it won't take long to visit family as at the moment with busses it can take upwards of 2 hours.
It's going to be my main form of transport, as it's kind of pricy these days to get lessons at £50 an hour.
Possibly, If I'm going it will rather have to be done through several days or I might need my full licence to be able to go on the Motorway.
Yorkshire is a little far from Southampton but I should really do it, I know it's quite beautiful up there and haven't been in many years.
I have a friend that has been coming across and having me pillion for them at the moment but I know a few others I might be able to reach out to for advice and things... maybe.
Family is supportive but sadly don't have bikes themselves so going to going alone with that aspect.
I'm currently looking at a street bike. The Honda CB125R, also no problem at all, I love talking about bikes too, don't know everything but getting there
Thank you, I will certainly look into getting that book as it could be a great help to learn how to ride safely :3
Yeah certainly didn't get low gear, have paid about £500 on gear so far. Need a new helmet as I was donated it, along with some trousers as I'm using my friends atm. Probably costing another £300 at least but least I'd be protected.
Going to spend about £3,000 on a bike so think I have actually spend more than 20% on gear.
Thank you, do you have a link for those sorts of ears (especially if they have similar style), I defo don't want something that doesn't look great and or falls off when I get up to speed.
