Failed Mod 1 :(

[rob_scott92]

well this morning i was hoping i could be one of those smug bsatards and do the ol' "i passed first time you know", but unfortunately it was not meant to be .

Everything was perfect, i put my foot down on the really slow speed walking pace manouvere but he turned a blind eye to that. he failed me for being 3km/h too slow on the swerve, was absolutely gutted!

i couldnt get another booking untill 14th december! so concequently i've had to re-book my Mod 2 for the soonest i could get, 5th JANUARY!!! got ages to wait now , i better pass next time!

If nothing else at least i know exactly what goes on now.

Sorry to hear that - especially about the long waiting time. I'm a bit surprised it's so busy at this time of the year.

In the meantime if you have a bike (based on your avatar something tells me you do) practice everything that's required to pass the test in an empty car park every now and then - just to make sure you won't run into any problems next time.

(here is a PDF for the new test leyout with measurements included, in case you forgot about it)

Blimey, never knew the wait could be so long. When i did mine i booked 1 and 2 for the next day. They had loads of short notice tests. Are you DAS so need an instructor with you?

Good luck for your next one, sorry to hear you didn't pass this time. Is it worth ringing up every few days to see if they have had any cancellations?

unlucky, good luck next time mate. booking times don't seem to be busy in my area, i booked last week for today.

i passed my mod1 today with 1 minor,
didn't you have two goes at the swerve? on my first i got 49kph so i had another go and got 56 lol

at least you know you can ride the bike though and you failed on something which is basically unlucky

ahh unlucky,
it was pouring it down with rain for me today aswell
on my 2nd attempt at the hazard avoidance i didnt stop direcly in the middle of the box, but having done it perfecctly the first time when i was 1kmph off target she let me off with just a minor (ive heard some people get failed for it, which seems quite harsh tbf)
so that was kind of her

[EUMP]

It's alright, just work on your slow control get a 125cc to practice around so you don't lose what you've got in your head.

I failed my MOD1 first time due to not getting enough speed on a old CG125 into the emergency stop and avoidence he even let me have two extra goes to the additional two times chance -- couldn't be done it seems, even ragged the hell out of each gear around the bend into it and was just under.
