New rider in edinburgh

Hi there, i've lived in edinburgh my whole life and cycle alot, i recently started getting stuff for a 125cc motorcycle.

It's due to arrive next week, alongside my cbt will probably be done next week too.

I just wanted to ask if anyone has any tips for riding in the city etc, cycling is pretty easy in the city with parking and bus lanes but how is it with motorcycles? I plan on mostly commuting from the city centre to the west of the city to Heriot Watt University, what do you reccomend as the best way to go west during rush hour etc, Thanks to anyone who can reply!
