Tips for you:
Dont's:
Listen to anything the instructor says.
Lifesavers.
wear protective clothing.
Do:
Speak in chav speak using the phrases "mush", "innit", "ah no bruv".
Arrive with the attitude that you know how to ride better than the instructors.
Pop a wheelie from one end of the car park to the other.

Pull your instructor aside beforehand and tell him that you're not afraid of death and that you were born ready for this shit. ____________________ Yamaha FZR400RR 3tj

You will stall. It's not the end of the world, the bike won't fall over on you, it's just extra practise at starting the bike.
In general look where you want to go. The faster you go the easier it is to stay upright. Try to remember what gear you're in so you don't find neutral by mistake / fail to find it when you need it.
For the on road bit be cautious as hell, they hate over confidence. New road: Check mirrors and cancel indicators. Do it every time, drill it into your mind as the one time you forget to do it will be when a lorry smashes you to bits
Erm basically it's training not a test, so ask questions if you're not sure. Mostly it's about making you safe so indicating, road positioning and mirrors, life savers and stuff.
Slow riding is a sod to get right as it requires fine clutch control so expect to be crap at it. It's basically revving the bike, holding the clutch part out then using the rear brake to control your speed. I never do it on the road. Keeping the revs up high makes it easier as you'll stall less and using the back break a shit load will make up for crap clutch control. |
