  1. ah I thought it sounded a lot like Bikesafe. Although I had to pay for that even though they said it was funded by TFL (not moaning was just confused). I'm just glad stuff like this - and biker down - exist.
  2. ..ooh I was worried there for a minute Ant on a slant made me laugh more than it probably should have
  3. Hopefully that's got you the information you need. But ask if you've got more questions. .....dont think I didn't see this
  4. ooh I do enjoy reading project threads
  5. yeah we didn't go this yeah as weekend grandstand tickets were £140 quid for the weekend. 5 years ago it was £90. Couldn't justify the outlay
  6. Happy Hoggs!!!! especially as I had money on Dovi again
  7. Hello and welcome! Right so you will need either a car driving licence or provisional before you can begin. Then you book your CBT. this as you said is basic training and how to work a bike. When you complete the course you'll get a certificate. This lets you ride up to a 125 on L plates by yourself. No pillion. No motorways. This is valid for 2 years. You will then need to do a motorbike specific theory test. These are done at test centres around the country use the DVLA website to find your nearest centre and book. This is valid for 2 years You must have a valid CBT and theory to do your DAS. You are old enough to do this don't worry about the A1/A2 stuff Mod 1. This is slow speed manoeuvres. If you pass this you can do... Mod 2. This is the road element. Pass this and you will have a full license - no restrictions or retests You can either do a CBT run around for a bit on a 125 or do everything together (will take a few weeks depending on available test dates) hope this all makes sense
  8. in the summer maybe start half choke and it will have hit 42 degrees by the end of the road which is when I turn it off (as I'm then on the north circular so won't be stop starting for a while) Winter normally needs to start with a bit more choke, then turn down to half then leave it on probably twice as long until the engine gets to 44ish You'll soon learn what your bike is happy with, the 125 took longer to heat up. Mine runs a bit rich and I prefer a higher idle to what the Haynes recommends so it warms up a bit quicker.
  9. I approve of this post
  10. WOW that is good customer service.
  11. as far as I'm aware the actual tests on the a1 are the exact same as the DAS just on a smaller bike. so I don't think it's worth it...just to straight for the DAS when you can afford it otherwise you'll end up doing the tests twice. And once is enough
  12. I always have to use the choke to start mine in the morning, is it chugging with the choke on?
  13. well it's not a race as long as you get to where you're going upright you win. also i find it better to let scooters go they have a kamikaze attitude that I prefer to be as far away from me as possible
  14. wot bob said
  15. *the forum is not liable for anyone falling off following practical experimentation
  16. it's like you want to be banned
  17. that's the standard oh shit we've messed up but need to make the customer think it was them that messed up tone.
  18. Hah takes more than that! I'm an admin on a few forums myself and know all the psyche outs! ooooooh hey [mention]Stu[/mention] wanna play a game?
  19. yes you should! PARDON??
  20. What am i missing.....apart from sleep my61 tch my 61tch my bitch
  21. I haz bt interphone 1200 they are about 40 quid each so if you want something just to see if you'll use it go for that. I've had mine a year or so does what i want. if you want fancy stuff then scala or sena are good but expensive
  22. I was so tempted just to delete that post to freak you out
  23. love the picture under the bridge
  24. Hoggfather lost an Allen key once. You guys should start a support group. Sorry it didn't go great but you didn't explode so... win?
