JoshRS Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 Well, my license has finally been returned after 3 long weeks of waiting. Instantly grabbed the phone and booked the mod 1.Friday the 28th of august (my pay day too, so hopefully might be a double whammy) at 12:03. 40 quid which includes a pre test 30 min mooch on the YBR. Same as last time but i'm going to get used to the brakes! So bring on attempt number 6 Quote
Guest Posted August 20, 2009 Posted August 20, 2009 Best of luck, I just passed mine on a YBR, so if I can do it anyone can Quote
urbanmark Posted August 20, 2009 Posted August 20, 2009 3rd time is lucky6th time is by the power of greyskull! Good luck! Quote
keeny Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 Hey best of luck...........one thing i did on the emergency stop was not use the back brake and just cover it with my foot, i was on a ybr 125 and just using the front brake stopped me no problem and without any chance of skidding through over use of back brake. i only used the back brake to steady me through the slow Manoeuvres.

Guest Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 Should be: front, back (not too heavy though) front harder..That's what i was told on my CBT anyway, and that's what i do now, practised it earlier and had no problems EDIT: Goodluck I would like to do mine soon. U turns etc i find really easy now. Quote

U turns etc i find really easy now. Try doing a u turn on an RS, then try it on a YBR, that'll really show you how easy they are to handle yep i'm fine with the braking method, i just didn't get used to them!! it was quite old so the brakes weren't that good, it was either off or on (poorly) Quote
JoshRS Posted August 27, 2009 Author Posted August 27, 2009 thanks mate, going to be wearing the lucky underwear + odd socks from when i passed my car test as they must be lucky also going to be shouting, BY THE POWER OF GREY SKULL whilst doing the swerve Quote
JoshRS Posted August 28, 2009 Author Posted August 28, 2009 Got all my documents ready to the test. Hmm where's my license, left it in the car. Oh, dad's took the car to work, just a little detour on the way to the test centre. Call up dad, turns out he's on the motorway, heading to cainbride No chance of getting the license to me time so had to cancel Quote
Guest Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 That's rotten luck Have you tried contacting the test centre to see if they can defer doing the paperwork? Quote
YamahaWolf Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 Josh that is unlucky. Have you contacted the teste centre I don't know if they would let you do it without all the documents though? Quote
