Hi,
Is anyone able to clarify whether I can ride my 98cc Bown under "Grandfather rights"?
As I understand it, because I passed my car driving test before 2001, I can ride a 50cc, 5KW machine with top speed of 28mph with no L plates and no CBT.
The Bown is 98cc, 2hp (1.5KW?) and might do 28mph if going down a hill with a tailwind.
I've been riding on L plates for the past two years but my CBT has now expired, and I want to check I definitely need to redo it to get back on the road.
Anyone had any experience of this?
i.e. the power and top speed of the machine is within Grandfather rights limits, but the capacity is above?
Thanks,
David.
