sucks for you 2big. im sure u would pass easy on a bigger bike so your size and age are against you. id go for the hire option if i was you. if you change your front sprocket you will have to change your chain too and then you might want to change them back after your test if your keeping it for 2 years. i think you can do mod 1 on hire bike and mod 2 on you own

I totally agree with sv shell and Karey....just how Im feelin.   Wish I had done it in my twenties.  :-(                                                                                                                                                                             

Oh yeah..... and how blinking slow do they walk on the slow ride, though instrucotr had glue on his heels lol !!.                                                                                                                                                                             

Lol @ kazninja!!                                                                                                                                                                                     

Lol to whaat Karey ..... its bloody scarey out there lol !!!!  :-)                                                                                                                                                                             

I'd fail on indicating. I don't. If I do I leave the stupid thing on, so best not to.                                                                                                                                                                              

had to sit a driving test to get to drive a company van for britsh gas he said i drove well but my observation and indercation was under par  flipin cheak !                                                                                                                                                                               

Observation could be a problem aswell come to think of it.
                                                                                                                                                                             

I passed mod 1 and mod 2 first time in august this year, so i still probably ride more or less as i was taught, so yes i could probably still pass now.

Glad i don't have to though!

Oh, and the swerve test is really easy when it comes to it. I found the hardest thing was the figure 8s. I had to do it on a Yamaha XJ6 which is, with apologies to anyone riding one, a truly horrible bike :p Way too top heavy to my mind. Also, when the feck am I ever going to need to do a figure 8 in the real world??

                                                                                                                                                                             

"so i still probably ride more or less as i was taught"

You need to get out of that habit then lol!!

I'd always recommend some advanced training; remember, first you learn how to pass your test and then you learn how to ride a bike.                                                                                                                                                                             

geoff that sounded like the wise old Dragon once said  from the water margin or monkey cant remember wich lol
