I struggled massively with Mod 1 on a Bandit, so much so they weren't going to allow me to take the test, although part of that was that they had a shortage of bikes and were trying to pressure me into doing it on an A2 bike.
Did you get much road riding in on the big bike? I think I struggled as they plonked me on the Bandit and we went straight into Mod 1 practice.
Anyhoo despite instructor **** (he really was) saying I wouldn't pass and it was just practice, I passed my Mod 1 and 2 first time If I can do it (I really was appalling at Mod 1 stuff) you definitely can.
P.S. The Varadero 125 probably comes closest to a motorway viable 125 but I still wouldn't. |

When booking a mod one test, don't you have to specific what type of license (A, A1, A2 or AM) you're wanting and can you change that when you turn up for the test?
You'll get used to the weight of the bike in time.
Something sounds not quite right with them giving you an hours training on the big bike and then deciding that it's a lost cause. |

Some people are a little bit scared of bigger bikes cos they ‘feel’ so much heavier than a 125.
Once you get the hang of a bigger bike, you’ll wonder what all the fuss was about.
Just keep plugging away at bigger bikes when you get the chance and it will become second nature
Remember not all bigger bikes have to be 1000cc/600cc.
You could move up to a 250/400? ____________________ I am the sum total of my own existence, what went before makes me who I am now! |
