Well in a couple of weeks im going to try do my motorbike test if i pass i was wanting to get a 600-800 cc motorbike but i like my current bike so i was wondering would it be possible to swap the engines obv get a garage to do it but is it possible?

Nah, my current engine is 125cc i want to upgrade to 800cc really.
im talking about size not the cc lol the other engine could be 25% bigger than your current one

If it was 25% bigger does that mean no chance it would fit on my bike?
depends if you got room if not then no.
Just get a regular CC size, not 800..

Its ment to mean why do you want a bigger engine its not like you need the extra speed your not going to be doing street races.

Yeah it's possible.
Just be careful, don't act like an idiot.. But the main rule is don't obey speed limits haha, joke.

Do you think it would cost much to get it fitted i can get a 5000 miles honda engine with 800cc on it. So depending on how much it will cost to fit i might be able to get it soon

insurance for a Modified bike would be more than the standard 800 bike, it would also be unwise as the brakes. gearbox, drivetrain and clutch would all need upgrading as they wouldnt be able to cope with the extra power and speed.
Ross has had like 3 accidents on his scrambler, but if you wanna get 800cc and kill yourself and have massive insurance fees etc, go for it!

lolololollollololololololololololololol ...... lolololol 800? :S thats alot more power then a 125 jap import to get used to.... If i'm not mixing you up then ur the one with the import 125 thing? The only thing you could do is put a 250 lump in at the most if theres a 250 version that is... And you have to drive a 125 for 1 year when you pass ur bike test at 17 you have to be 21 for direct access for the bigger bikes (600 for 2 years then anything)
