How can I get a motorbike license in the UK. I'm 15 and planning to get a bike when I'm 17.http://www.honda.co.uk/motorcycles/125cc/#!/msx125/ I have tried reading some stuff but I'm finding it difficult to understand the different types of licenses etc. Could somebody please explain to me ( in easy language ) the process of getting a license for that bike? Also is riding a bike in the UK safe. I leave is kinda towny area so just wondering.
Cheers in advance.

- Which Scooter should I get as my first ever motorbike? I will definitely buy the Honda Activa. No I'm confused between the 3 varients available in India. The Simple Activa, The Activa i & the Activa 125cc. My ride will be around 22kms daily through a mixture of bad & very bad roads. Also I'm a first time rider, means I will learn on this vehicle too. I'm proficient in bicycling. Please advice.
- Which Motorbike should I get? I'm planning to get a motorbike next year to get to school every weekday and to commute a bit. I'm thinking of buying either a Yamaha YZF R15, Honda CBR250R or a Kawasaki Ninja 300. Which one would be best for me? I'm about 1.7m tall 15 years old 16 next year.
- What motorbike CRF should I get? I learned to ride mx on a Honda CRF80 which was really slow and so small that I kept tripping on corners because my feet and knees were so awkwardly perched. That bike that I've been looking at CRF150, and am wondering if that'd be more suited, or if I could ride something more advanced. I'm a 14 year old girl, love the sport, and would love your help!
- Shoud I buy the motorcycle before or after I get my license and gear? I found an interesting offer on a Honda CB500 from 1993 but I don't have my license nor gear. I'm afraid that if I don't buy it now I might loose it. What do you think? Of course I don't plan on riding with no gear. I'm going to store the motorcycle until it's 100% safe
