Well done
How long where you riding for on the test, any tips you can give now you've done it i've got mine to do in a month.
Are you going to get a new or used bike, i've got an eight year old cb500 to get used to riding for twelve months after i pass then look for something like bandit 1200 or a big supermoto. |

Oh never mentioned the best bit about the test. Now the nerves are going I am remembering it
Coming up towards Brahead Shopping Centre, big roundabout with exits in every direction, traffic light controlled.
Came up to the red light and stopped. Lights changed, did obs then moved off, quick glance to the right and here comes a car straight through the red light towards me but braking and skidding. I had to make a decision and that was to accelerate out of danger so I hit the throttle and off I went listening to horns blazing etc...
Examiner said that although by accelerating away I broke the speed limit I had limited choices, had I picked the option of stopping I would have failed! So my choice was correct. ____________________ Current - 2007 Suzuki Bandit GSF1250 - 1999 Suzuki TL1000R

Well done mate, told you it was a breeze, right? Although, it did seem to be a bit of a war zone out there when you went for your ride. Great feeling isn't it, what sort of bike are you after, sports 600, 500 twin? I've probably learned more about riding in the short time i've had my GS than I did in all my training and 125 riding, the world's a different place at 90mph on a bike .
Guess were on for that meet, next summer? ____________________ Current bike:- Suzuki GS500 '02 plate. Next bike CBR600F or GSX650F. I'll leave the race reps to the kids.

Strangely my examiner told me to be careful while pulling out of a junction onto a freshly dressed road, and then while approaching a 'T' junction he more or less told me not to indicate left until we'd passed a side road to the left. Helpful chap, sure they're not supposed to do that though . ____________________ Current bike:- Suzuki GS500 '02 plate. Next bike CBR600F or GSX650F. I'll leave the race reps to the kids.

Well done.
Nothing wrong with a Bandit 1200. Only 1 insurance group higher than the 600 but bags more torque  |

Afterwards you do certainly wonder what all the fuss was about but of course try convincing yourself of that before you have done it.
You cant take away the nerves, but I now know from experience that its more in the head than anything. Drive confidently, make your obs clear, plan ahead and dont panic if you appear to do something wrong, just move on to the next bit  ____________________ Current - 2007 Suzuki Bandit GSF1250 - 1999 Suzuki TL1000R
