hi i have looked at the schhols that provide test training for the full licence exp das and they all seem massivly expensive ive been riding for 20 months now and really need to do my test before my cbt expires, i was thinking of renting a bike and just doing the test straight but then with cost of transport of bike and insurance and rental it seems to work out the smae price,

has anyone seen a descent training school that will do a 3 day test with bike rental for cheap Wink any suggestions will be looked into

the cheapeast i found was arounf 600 quid so anythign better than that will be wicked.

London being London and the level of demand for bikes and bike training is expensive, I used passmasters in Northolt for the 3 day training course which was fine if a little hefty at 300 at the time (that was using my own bike.)
If you don't want to pay £600 why not just take the training and test on your own bike? If you pass on the 125 you can always redo the test afterwards on a 500 when you've reached test standard?
Or alternatively just book a bike for the test itself and do training on your 125! Don't see why it couldn't be done.
Why not look at prices outside London if you don't mind travelling.

They don't have a good reputation to be fair.
2 of their instructors are total wankers. Curly girl and the guy with glasses are very nice chaps though.
Elite motorcycle trainings got decent instructors.

I like your idea cheesy beaner The hardest part is not knowing what they'll ask or do, but I guess if I do test once I'll learn the ropes Wink sound like a nice plan thanks
