Few Questions On Shineray XY125GY-VIII

Hi, just got my reg number + tax disc from dvla today. And got a plate made up.

I've been on my bike all day, just wanted to ask use some questions as im first time riding on the road.

1. What gear do use lot be in when you turn corners?
2. Can or are the shinerays De-restricted? Some people said you cant get them derestricted some people said they are.
3. Whats your max speed on these shineray pit bikes, because I've hit 49 but that was on a normal road so at to slow down, but i thought they go 60-70.
4. I aint gave the insurance my reg number yet, as its a saturday/sunday there closed. If police right in there computers my reg plate and it comes up no insurance, would they belive me if i told them that i have insurance but i got to ring the dvla up, or would they arrest me and take my bike until i show them the cover note? lolz.
5. If i went in a food shop, can i leave the bike right out side it like on pavement near the door, or do i have to park it on the road?

Thanks Please Answer, Sorry For Stupid Questions.

Re: Few Questions On Shineray XY125GY-VIII

1. it depends how fast your going into the corner, better to be to high a gear than too low becuase if you drop too many gears the back wheel will lock up.

2. must be deristricted if you got 49

3. 60- 70 is a load of crap. with a upgraded carb and exhasut you will be lookign around 55 - 60

4. if you can prove it with a letter or something just carry it with you

5. just park it somewhere sensible in eyesight and lock it up, preferably somewhere with cameras and something to lock it up to securely.

Nice 1, i always change corners in 3-4th gear, is this a bad thing will it mess my bike up? i hate going to first or 2nd gear cos ur right it locks the back wheels.

also can you bump start these and do they have steering lock cant find it or do it

Re: Few Questions On Shineray XY125GY-VIII

steering lock is infront of the forks on the same side as your ignition just behind your headlight cover
