How many lesson did you have

[fazza59]

Started my DAS yesterday and gotta say, if you can pass without any lessons you gotta be shit hot.

Overall the lesson went well, main problem was getting used to a bike that you have never ridden before with brakes that feel different etc.

Anyway what I want to know is how many lesson, as in hours, did you do before you took your test. Bit worried that the instructor is being a bit cautious or maybe its just I am shitter than I thought???

I think I did about 10 hours in total. Passed first time with 2 minors. That was on my own bike though.

I did a three day DAS if I remember rightly. Two full days of training with the test on the third day.

I did a 2 day DAS, of which 60% of the time seemed to be spent stopping for brews/bacon sandwiches/more brews/idle chat... After my first day I'd decided that a DAS was just a lesson in Motorcycle social etiquette

5 day DAS plus a couple of hours before my test, flew through with 3 minors.

I went into the course with very little motorbike experience so for me the extra days were worthwhile I think.

Yeah tbh on the first day I was getting really pissed off with it.... I kept thinking "I've paid money for training not to stand around " but I passed with no minors so who am I to complain

Just because you passed okay doesn't make it an acceptable way of training people though.

I did the two-day DAS, with a one-hour pre-test lesson; passing my test with 2 minors. Each day involved about 6.5 hours of riding; and on both days' afternoons, my instructor took me into the countryside for some fun riding as a break from the city-learning.
