Yeah, Good Luck mate
Just stay cool (ok, easier said than done ) and make sure that you exaggerate your mirror checks (tuck your shoulders in and move your head more, so that your examiner can see your checks...hmm...I still do exaggerated checks )
...check your mirrors before drastic changes of speed...so when you're either braking, or winding the throttle up on the dual carriageway, have a quick look in your mirrors.
Lifesavers - do them whenever you change road position or turning. Try not to go over-happy with them, or you get done for not concentrating enough on the road ahead. ____________________ TiN

having just failed, i can say, refer to page 42 of the highway code, and make sure you know the procudure for turning right at a crossroads
cos i did what the second pics shows, and your sposed to do what the first pic indicates, so you can see the road ahead,
other than that, stay calm, cancel your indicators, and stick to the speed limit, under no circumstances break it |

Like TIn said - just exaggerate EVERYTHING, like show your brake lights at speed limit changes (even if you're doing the new speed - i.e. 40 -> 30 etc etc )
Be nice to the examiner, don't give them reason to fail. Stay cool - you can probably ride better than is necessary. Oh, of course GOOD LUCK!!! ____________________ Avast! Pirates ahoy!

I passed with 1 minor, I didn't slow down quick enough coming off the dual carriageway into a 40 zone, the examiner obviously wanted a stoppie as I went past the '40' signpost  |

I got 3 minors:-
1)I pulled over too close to a bus lane when he told me to stop.
2)The SR125 i was on was shit (not making excuses ther really are ) and slipped into neutral from 1st at a junction.
3)There was a gap in traffic at a round about and i didnt take it...eh? im not gonna jump into any gaps on a bike that barely does 60 down a flat.
personally i put two down to not knowing the bike well enough/the bikes are shite.
the minor for pulling near a bus stop was just me not giving a damn. He did say "In an appropriate place" but where i stopped WAS an appropriate place considering we were stoping for 15 seconds max.
but i dont care really it was my first test im not gonna be perfect. |
