tryme

well why arent you moving it away from the bike i.e backwards. surely this would tighten it?

1 piece? is there such a thing. that would be awful

well done mate.

lol maybe im a just a skinny one

what a good idea !

can anyone suggest a pinlock visor insert to get from maybe ebay or some where like that? pref universal if that is possible? im not sure how they actually get put onto the visor. do you have to screw through the visor or something?

lol wow. mind you theres always a way round these things im sure ill find something i just got to try it on rather than online ordering and having to send bits back.

In all honesty not any thatim certain of the size of. I've had to borrow bikes from the bike school but unsure of the si2. But they fitted ok. How small are you little cat lol

lol ! i always wonder when would it get to the point when you say is enough is enough im dropping the bikes too much lol.

well done

I would go for unisex but would rather wear big clothes than womens lol

that tools pretty cool but fairly expensive for what it is. is there another alternative to getting the oil down the cables? just thought id ask incase i encounter this in the future as ive heard of it happening quite often to people.

looks like ill be wearing a lot of layers underneath then lol.

im a small bloke 5 ft 6 i cant find sod all in my size, honestly. I need a 36-38 jacket all i can find is 40 as a SMALL! and waist 30 leg 30 in trousers. Ive found waist 30 in trousers but leg legnth is always 32 or longer oh the joy!

Well done

Lol feeling so much better now after reading these. Best one was kicking it in gear when moving and it shot off! Lol that had me going for a while

wow, good stories mind! anyone else wanna fess up?

ouch. lucky the bike i dropped (twice) was the schools learner bike and had engine bars so no damaged apart from to my pride lol. thanks for the replies!

just a quick pole as i felt rather silly when i dropped the schools cbf600 on my das training for module one

great reply, thank you

the only time i get happy to see one of the things is when its delivering my pizza

this is a joke right?

Hi guys this is a simple question really. other than obviously needing to be waterproof and abrasive what sort of protection should motorbike trousers offer you? ce approved knee protection is obviously very basic but should you expect anything else from them? should they protect your hips or near your buttocks or what? I know you dont want to be sitting on nothing hard so obviously you wont have something like a back protector type material there but there may be something else softer or just abrasive on the outside.

Had my training on the sat where I dropped the bike twice! After more practise I got a lot more confident and comfortable. Roll on sunday.. Had to be up at 6 to be down the training school at 7. Went straight on the road and made our way to the test centre for my test at 815. Parked in the vays outside the centre went in got my paper work checked and the guy told mne to ride to the top of the centre where hed meet me. So I went up the top parked in one of the cone bays as advised only for him to chuckle and say I've parked in the wrong way...durh after a second it clicked in my head which way I'd be heading out to do the slalom! Any way wheeled it out no problem ( I did struggle with this in training as I'm only 5 6 and the honda cbf600 was a tadddd big for me so took me a lil longer to get the technique) Then I did the slalom which was a piece of **** thenm figure of 8 which was also easy although felt like I went round about 10x lol. Then I did a slow ride which was also very easy onto a you turn which was also easy (ok I'm not bragging but it was) I then rode to the other end went round the bend came down and did a controlled stop in the 4 cones. Also quite easy as no speed limit, just don't go to slow. It also gives you a chance to gauge speed needed for hazard avoidance and emergency stop. I then did emergency stop which was easy speed was 57kph. Then did hazard avoidance and got 52kph. I then went back to the guy who said I did well and pleased to say I've passed. I didn't get any minors or "rider faults" Just have to say the test is as easy as you make it and I'm looking forward to mod 2 early next year. Thanks for listening/reading

Ahhh thanks guys can't wait to do mod 2 now but that will be a few months yet I'm skint lol
