New to the forum and motor bikes

[mazz]

Hi ya'll,
Im mazz and Im new to the forum and new to the whole world of motor bikes. I have just bought a little Honda CG125 and named it "baby" (I'm such a girl) . I went for my CBT on Saturday but must have been one of the only people in the world who managed to fail haha So my dad's friend took me out the next day and I had no problems and picked it up no problem unlike the day before so am thinking that maybe nerves got the better of me. Anyway long story short, I am going back to do my CBT again on Tuesday 23rd and am nervous that I will make an idiot of myself again, any tips?

Hi,

Nice choice in bike there (I ride one, haha, it's alright for a while but get the test passed ASAP before boredom sets in!)

Just relax, and don't look at your feet/front of wheel when riding (Which is what I kept doing), stay away from the centre white line in the middle of the road.

I think you need to get up to 30MPH to pass (that's what I was told anyway).

Good luck with the CBT again!

I managed to get up to 50mph on sunday when my dad's pal took me out...he told me I have to learn how to use breaks and its not necisary to go fast ALL the time I just cant win

Firstly welcome

As for failing , last time i done my CBT ( i've done it twice ) i was told the ONLY way i could fail was if i couldn't read a number plate from something like 20 metres away .

After all it's not actually a test - CBT = Compulsory Basic TRAINING .

But crack on with it anyway , sure you'll get it next time

How did you fail? i'm sure you'll get loads of sound advise from the people on here. There are some very knowledgable folks here.

Nice to see another good looking lady join the biking community too
