Hi peeps, done my CBT, now today I've done my theory. DAS is next Very Happy

I still hate the hazard part of the theory test.... I feel its more down to technique than actually being able to spot hazards, plus watching a video on a monitor is nothing near like the 20/20 vision/full immersion of driving a car or riding a bike..... still its done and dusted for me.

I dread my practical test though, I was a bag of nerves doing the theory, God help me on the back of a bike like that Shocked

Thanks peeps.

As for the theory, well the DSA theory handbook is invaluable for the questions..... although to be honest I think anyone with driving experience and common sense will pass those..... The hazard test.... well there is plenty advice right here, I remember "slingshot" gave a great writeup on doing the theory test.

Is the bike theory quite similar to the car (in terms of HZ&P clips)? I know the questions are more safety orientated on a bike's. Passed the car theory and i'm looking to get the bike done ASAP before doing my A2 license.

Titot128, I think they use the same video clips... or maybe not. On the clips I saw there was no evidence of car, IE no bonnet etc etc, but on that note I don't think there was evidence of banking into corners so I really cant say.

My DAS starts on the 14th, test on the 17th. Looking forward to the DAS, NOT looking forward to the test Confused

To my surprise when asking for advice, I've been told to suck the examiner's c*ck. Now if I thought it might help I'd actually be pretty tempted Laughing

Two Craigs pass in one day, now that's freaky!

I passed too, but as I'm under 21, I have to do the 33bhp test, boohoo. But I guess its for my own and everyone else's safety!

So, current plans, car and bike test, get a ZXR400 and no car, sorted!!

Once I do my test an NSR may be up for sale!!!
