    New bike

    right, im finally getting off my..ahem, yes, and booking my bike test before i go to uni. I'v been riding bikes on and off since i was 7 so im 'slightly' used to riding now a fazer 600 with restricter kit do me good?

    oh, and any tips for the test? i cant remember all the bike checks you have to do before you get on and stuff and i doubt im taking a lesson before hand, seeing that my cbt instructor said i'd have passed a test the way i rode on my cbt, and that was first time on the road on a 125 after a year on a 'ped

    i'm expecting at least one "theres already been a thread on this" comment, but its not quite the same, i have checked

    I would recommend having at least 1 lesson just to get the glances sussed. If not then looking too much cant be a bad thing and make sure you exagerate the glances to make sure the tester sees them.

    I did mine pre-clutch with the tester following me in a car in a busy overparked town so an advice from me would probably be bad .

    The only thing I can think of is Lifesavers and don't put both feet down.

    Oh and Good luck!
