I did my CBT Thursday just gone, on a Yamaha SR125, was great fun.

Remember to cancel your indicators, I was a bugger for leaving them on. Although I could of swore I was pressing it. Laughing

Hahah! I'm sure I will make a hilarious fool out of myself on the day! Can't wait!

On another note - I just got a quote TPO on an RS125 for 300 quid! Everyone's a winner! Very Happy

I got TPO insurance for my RS125 for £175, I paid £2,300 for the bike, the bike was then nicked 2 weeks later.

Total amount of money down the pan = £2,475 Rolling Eyes

Well, System of a Down rocked, but I am bricking it for tomorrow.

Managed to borrow my flatmates leathers, boots and gloves though! Very Happy I might be the only one there in leathers but I'll be the only one with skin left on my knees at the end of the day! Smile

The place that tested me said they were really strict! I stalled at the lights about 3 times!

I also kept looking down to change down gears at the lights, so he said I should have some lessons as well! Also had a couple of times where I got confused coming to a stop and ended up pinning the throttle and screaming the pants off of the bike!

The CLR125 is a really nice bike to ride, quite nice looking as well! Smile

He said I've done really well considering I've never even read the highway code before for years! Enjoyed the rideout immensley, and covered 25 miles, from Formby to Lancashire.

They also do 5 day DAS for 350 quid and the instructor is excellent, really friendly and a great confidence booster! If he can make me ride 'ok' in a day then I can't imagine what he could do for someone else!

If anyone's interested the company is Altomoto in Formby (Near Tescos) They also do repairs, and specialise in Jap sports bikes Smile
