Is this feasable?

Hi all, So currently i have a Honda PCX 125ESP and LOVE it!!!
BUT i'm starting to want a bigger bike... now in order to do so i need to take my A something licence.

I have been wondering if i could sell my scooter and use the money to pass my bike test and buy a cheap (propper) bike?

Finance is not an option as i wouldn't pass the checks and the funds available are only what i could get for my scoot. I'm thinking i should be able to get a reasonable 2nd hand motorbike for a few hundred quid?

What size engine should i aim for? 250? 400? 600?

bummer

what kind of price would a runner go for?

yeah i'm 30 so no issues there, so it would be worth to save up for the test and a bit more then sell my bike and get a bigger one? I only work 5 mins from home on my bike but it's nice to have enough power to overtake trucks and feel safer on the dual carriageway.

"Once you go Jap" lol!
Thanks for the advice! i'll have a look and see what kind of licence to go for and bikes etc. For now i'll get my CBT done and then i have 2 years to get saving!
Buying computer bits all the time doesnt help i guess haha!
