Finally after 10,000 miles on a 125 I've got a booking for mod1 next Thursday Very Happy , which should be interesting as I will have my first ever training session on the 500 I'll be taking the test on this Saturday Rolling Eyes . Just hope the bloody weather improves by then. Confused

What took you so long? Confused

Have you been on the 500 yet? You're going to be amazed at how much easier it is to ride. Wink

Good luck for Mod 1 Thumbs Up

Yep, agree with Roger. Mind you'll kick yourself once you have been on a bigger bike a few times.

I can here the "Why didn't I do this earlier......." already Laughing

Just make sure you watch your speed. 50 on a 500 does not feel anything like 50 on a 125 Thumbs Up

There was a few times I was doing 50 in a 30 without realising Embarassed

Had a ride out on a GS500, love it. Off to the test centre for a mod1 practice after lunch. Very Happy
