Jack5r Posted July 24, 2010 Author Posted July 24, 2010 PASSED!!One hour of Driving round in circles really did help. I was able to work out how much break, clutch and throttle was needed for each move. The road was a little scary at first as we came to a round about straight away and I have never even cycled in one before! Bad points - my sense isn't good. I was unsure who had right of way at times and what road markings were saying having never used them before on my bicycle. Also sometimes I went into neutral instead of 2nd and that horrible sound!

Mightycaz Posted July 24, 2010 Posted July 24, 2010 Well done mate. I still find myself in neutral sometimes when changing from first to second and wonder why its revving its bollox off! Just make sure you give it a good kick up when changing!! Quote
Jack5r Posted July 24, 2010 Author Posted July 24, 2010 Cheers. My mum has now realised I really am going for this and will bike a bike as soon a I find a good deal, so she has offered to pay for some extra 1 to 1 lessons to make me a safer driver. Quote
Remy Posted July 24, 2010 Posted July 24, 2010 Well done on passing . I think that further training would be a very good thing,esp if you are not confident. If you've never handled a motorbike and also don't have road awareness (as in a car driver) it can be very daunting on the roads! Also given that a motorbike is potentially far more lethal than a car, it's so important that you ride safely. Once you are familiar with controlling the bike then you can spend more time reading the roads. Happy biking! Quote
