Yea. When you're young you can't wait to get older, but when you're older you just wish you were younger.
And then there's Peter Pan...

Today went really well! I'm hoping that will be true of the next couple of days too!
I'm using the school's bike as they said the U turn would be a piece if p*ss on it compared to mine. But get this. . . I was too short for the CG125 so am using an SR!
The problem I encountered was that I'm used to the "press to turn it off" indicator on my bike and the SR you just move back and I accidently ended up indicating the other way instead of correcting it!
I'm really looking forward to tomorrow! Right now I need a hot bath and sleep!
Thanks guys!
My insurance cost a touch under £290 fully comp I think. But I have got 3 points and am 29!  ____________________ RVF400 (NC35) My baby |

Glad you hear it Kitten!!!
Haha, Yea I did that a few times on my mates SR Hope the rest goes well
Roughly how much did the training cost in total? I would feel alot more confident going into my 17th / test having done that. |

Is that yams sr? Did my DAS on this pony. I kept (and still do) backing off the throttle when trying to do the U turn, then the foot comes down. Then eureka I just learnt to really grip the tank with my thighs, plenty of revs, then feather the clutch / rear brake. Its amazing how much your confidence goes up when you start doing it one after the other
Once or twice managed to do U turn on full lock on the ER5 using same technique Cant do feck all on the ZXR
Pay no attention to how the lesson goes before the test, dont get hung up on any mistakes that you make.
You'll be ok
Good luck ____________________ Current : MSX 125 Past : CBR 900RR Monkeybike : c50 LAC : ZXR750 H2 : FZR600 : ZX7R P3 : YW100 : TRX850: Trophy 900 T309 : GSXR 600 L0: Monkeybike : XJ6S Whosthedaddy |

Good luck!
You'll need it on an SR, they're uncomfortable little buggers!
You shouldn't have too many problems passing it on a 125.  ____________________ I must not be a troll...
