Sadly I found a major flaw the other day. In stop start traffic or filtering slowly my left hand is useless at clutch control. Bike went up for sale and sold a day later for a tidy profit. Enter dylan. 2005 Honda Dylan 125 liquid cooled scooter. Mot till October,loads of history. Old boy owner who fixed everything and anything at the dealer. It's a 14bhp engine too so is quite high power wise considering limit is 15bhp for 125 on CBT and most race rep 125 are only 14 to 15bhp. Pulls my heavy frame well and will sit comfortably at 60. Quite nippy off the line to 40 ish as well which is handy round town. Came with givi top box,spare keys etc. Old boy fitted heated grips and switchable front spotlights too

What's the criteria for passing a bike test do you have to have a geared bike or can you take it on an auto?

You can take it on an auto or semi auto & just ride them.

I'm not sure how that applies to 'semi auto/clutch-less manuals' like DCT though.
