Banned and illegal motorcycles

This is the list of 250cc motorcycles that are banned or illegal for learner motorcyclists to ride. These were formerly motorcycles which learners could ride but have now been legislated out of existence LAMS purposes. The list applies to most Australian States and Territories with LAMS in place.

The common feature of these motorcycles is that they are all two stroke engines. All have dramatic power and different riding requirements and characteristics and limited life span due to high maintenance compared to 4 strokes engines. They could be described as production race motorcycles!

These models were great during the heyday in the early 1990’s but emissions and technology have moved forward so should you.
