I have taken two lessons and now is my practical test in a week, i want to use my NSR but im afraid that when doing a u-turn i will fuck up. Has anyone done their test on an NSR? and did you pass?. Im learning on a CG125 which is very easy. The only problem is ill save sixty quid by soing it on my bike!

They charge you £60 to use their bike??? I pay £35 for an SR125. Bahstards. I would highly recommend using on of theirs as they're a little easier in test situations.

Why don't u just spend half an hour every day practicing U-turns on your NSR in a quiet road (make sure it's of similar width to test road).

I did my test on my TZR, no problems with the u-turn at all, just don't rev it too much, keep it under control.

I can do u turns on my NSR quite easily - and meh headbearing are all shot. so it shouldnt be too hard. I did used there SR125 on the day tho (and training) because i felt that they were more suitable for the test situation.

i agree it probably would be easyier on 1 of there bikes for doing the u turn but common thats about a minutes worth of the test and if u put in the practice then its not that bad and for the rest of the test u r on your own bike and r used to riding it through busy streets i passed my test 1st time on me nsr just practice your u turn the examiner make u u turn the bike walking it around to ensure the road is wide enough so no excuses can be made
