Mod 1 all done and dusted? Mod 2 is just a ride around. Careful into junctions and roundabouts wheelie confident out, you'll be reet.

What makes you think you can't buy anything as good as the budget hacks that the school will be using?

Option 3) Come to a complete dead stop at just about every junction and roundabout in existence and annoy the examiner in the process.*

*caution advised: only perform if ear plugs are available for post test de-brief. I found out the hard way.

You're 80? I'll leave your willy to the others if that's ok. Thumbs Up

Make sure you set the throttle to 'tour' for the test! S (sport) is too responsive, and r (bland) can't remember what it's meant to be.

Hello Dave welcome to BCF and good luck on mod2 Thumbs Up

About the bike CB750 is a nice bike. One can argue that may be even better not to potato yourself compared to the Shiver.

Shiver 750 is an unusual choice for a training school bike, I rescind my "hack" prejudice.

Crikey, the Honda is north of 240kg fully fuelled. Must be quite the contrast.

Very unusual choice. Will certainly make you learn finer clutch and throttle control.
