Hello everyone I have a question,Can I get temp insurance to do my mod2 on my own bike. The bike can be taken to the test centre on a trailer fully taxed and hopefully insured. Just need to find a company that will insure me for that Day. Any help massively appreciated.

Yes,there was no sign of the car when I set off I made sure there was nothing before I set off and I was upto the correct road speed when he was flying down the hill the car wasn’t right up behind me he must have seen the examiner who to be fair looked like a motorcycle traffic officer and hit the brakes so there was no chance of him going in the back of me. What has me concerned is if at a roundabout am I going to be failed for hesitation due to being over cautious when it’s a much less distance of approaching traffic The roundabout on this test route is renowned for being a nightmare but I use it everyday either in the car or on the bike so I know what is a safe way to approach it. I will pass the test and I can’t wait

Definitely the next test is the winner,just hope the next time is the last

Very True,I read that they will be scrapping the Mod 1&2 my instructor said that is not going to happen and they are renaming it to cbt+. To be fair I think its quite a safe test I’m 52 now and wish I did it years ago

Thanks everyone for the Replies onwards and upwards just have to wait for my instructor to have a slot for me to book a retest it will be a busy time for him with lessons and cbt’s. Very tempted to trade my 125 in and buy the GSX650 F I want and speak to Bikesure about learner insurance and get straight in for first available test. There’s no problem getting the bike there on a trailer

I recently failed my Mod 2,I was asked to pull over when safe which i did. We were at the bottom of a hill with a slight bend. when asked to proceed i did all the correct checks indicated checked again and then set off,then an idiot who was speeding came hurtling down the hill behind me although he was not there when i set off and because he had to brake i failed which i dont think is fair. i was told i pulled out in front of him which was wrong as the road was clear when i set off other than that i was told im a confident rider and there were no other issues i couldnt believe it

So how would an instructor on a bike behind be able to grab the steering or hit the brakes.
