Simple question

[devolved]

Sorry if its already been asked elsewhere - Do instructors have 650+cc bikes to take your 'R' lessons on or am I gonna have to get a bigger bike beforehand, and get a shadow everywhere?

If instructors offer R class lessons they will either specify you need your own bike or they will have suitable R class bikes to use.

Not sure why you think they need "650cc and above" As long as it's over 250cc it would be an "R" class bike When I got my "L" (now RE) and "K" (now R) classes (many, many) years ago the instructor/Cully's had several bikes, 2 82 Yammie XS250RK's and an identical (apart from cc's) XS400RK and that was what I did my big bike licence on
