  1. No but i had other issues lol, what are you doing the mod 1 on bike wise ?
  2. I had exactly the same problem, I came up with pretty much what you are doing now. Focus on a point directly ahead while pulling away, foot up and onto the rest smooth and quick, get stable, i did my quick check on count of 2 try do it relaxed and smooth, don't turn too far or you will pull on your shoulders and the bike will follow which you will try to correct when you look straight ahead again and that's the start of a wobble, look back to your focus point, another count of 2 for me, physically make your self relax before you turn, and as your turning repeat something till your round, i used "drive" so as to remind myself that if the rear wheel wasn't getting drive it was foot down or bike over I also practiced this till the cows not only came home they went to sleep. If its just the wobble that's throwing you off, practice pulling away looking and stopping, separate it out into sections until you can put them all together. Are you ok with the actual turn
  3. First off I'm very new to this. Second, try to relax, don't worry if it takes you a little longer to get the hang of it, if you feel really unsettled at stopping and clutch control ask if you can have another session practicing in the training area or pay for one, sounds like a lot of your problems are related to underestimating your stopping ability and slow control and slipping the clutch, this will all improve with practice, I'm still hopeless with u turns lol.
  4. Well I ended up almost where i started, tried a few pairs on today and bought a pair of the knox nexos gloves almost the protection of the handroid without the shouty bits and not quite so race orientated. Thanks for the info.
  5. I keep going back to handroids but i think they look a bit shouty if that makes sense, i like the level of protection but i think they may be a bit over the top for learning in feedback and comfort wise.
  6. As above really, I'm still in the learning stage and would like some comfortable summer gloves but want the protection to be high and to cover the wrist, looked at lots but struggling to settle on a pair, not too concerned on price more comfort and protection Thanks
