Trying out the bike I would like to buy, Kawasaki W400.

Last week I got the driving license for 400CC motorcycle in Japan. Since I already had converted my driving license for car it only took 17h driving lessons and a driving test at the school. This was a package for taking the test at a authorised driving school, if you don't go to a authorised driving school then you need to take the government driving test which is much harder to pass.

In Japan they changed the law a couple of years ago and now it is not allowed to take driving license for full size motorcycle directly, you first need a driving license for small motorcycle (125CC) or the intermediate level (400CC).

The only problem now is that I need to find a parking for the bike before I can buy one. And this turned out to be much harder than expected. That is, I thought I could just put it in our bicycle room in the building but that was of course forbidden. All other parkings cost a fortune but I'm looking around and hopefully I can find something soon.
