Well done! Passed mine today as well, just in time for the snow etc haha

Well, i've not been on here for a couple weeks due to essays etc, but today i did my Mod 2 and passed with 3 minors! Have to say i've been grinning all day, and treated myself to a new helmet!

Didn't realise this thread existed Edinburgh half the time, back end of nowhere in perthshire the rest of the time

Well done!!

thats a tad pricey...

not sure, not something i've ever looked into, but there is this sort of thing on ebay: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Motorcycle-Handlebar-30mm-Risers-Oversized-28-6mm-Fat-Bar-Pro-Taper-VEGAS-/120781970838?pt=UK_Motorcycle_Parts&hash=item1c1f2a9d96#ht_1148wt_1270 Should fit most bikes/bars, although, you will need to check that your cables would be long enough! Oh dear

bar risers can potentially raise the bars up an inch or two, you may also be able to find bars with a higher rise themselves. alternatively, you could lower the seat height

Have a good one booth!

i put the sexy back in dylsexic

almost dropped my 125 putting it into my shed, just managed to hold it upright. I don't know if this counts as a drop or not, but went round a mini roundabout and hit an icy man hole cover which landed me on my side. Was at less than 5mph, so dunno if that's a drop or a slow speed crash? No shame in dropping a bike if your relatively new to that size of bike, especially if nerves are a contributing factor...

I find if i'm ever doing a job like this, that i'm not overly familiar with, i take photos as i go along so i can see where everything went. When i fitted my restrictor kit and put everything back together, my bike didn't start initially. I couldn't understand why. Then i remembered that the fuel tap was still in the off position Double check that this isn't the case - it's easily done! It would have run initially from any fuel left in the carbs, but then would stop and fail to start if there was no more fuel getting to it. If you are using a manual, you could always take everything off again and follow it in reverse steps to see if you missed an important cable or hose. Good luck at any rate

I once had some wisdom passed on to me: "Riding a scooter is like riding a really fat bird. It's fun until your mates see you doing it."

Hope it was a good one!
