Si 2the Mon Posted April 19, 2010 Posted April 19, 2010 I passed first time! soo happy now haha I honestly thought i'd failed but I'll probably explain how the test went in the 'experiences' section. Just got to get insured now and then i'm out on the open roads Quote
wannars125 Posted April 19, 2010 Posted April 19, 2010 Nice one matey! Enjoy your freedom now and stay safe! Quote
Si 2the Mon Posted April 19, 2010 Author Posted April 19, 2010 Thanks guys, just been out for a ride on the bike, love it! still pretty darn fast even restricted, but I was struggling on the corners at low speed i.e. stopped in the road waiting to turn into a side road, I stalled the bike a few times and embarassed myself lol, I guess I just need to get used to the clutch and throttle on this and also the weight compared to the tiny cg125 I learnt on.Any tips?

Guest Posted April 19, 2010 Posted April 19, 2010 Yup, best tip is to just take it easy and ride a lot! You'll get used to it very quickly As far as clutch goes, just use more revs than you think you need for now, then as u ride, u can gradually use less and less revs Quote
lingy3 Posted April 19, 2010 Posted April 19, 2010 Well in,Same as Cobz said,bit more gas,slip clutch, & bit of back brake, till you get used to it.I found with more power that got me out of most move off's,without wrentching shoulders out of sockets. Quote
