Well done that man. I must admit that i have seen this'Swerve test' on the TV and its no where near as bad as its been made to sound. Weaving round a dozy twonk whos just pulled out is much more difficult!

I assume its exactly the same as the test you must have done. I think it doesnt include U-turns because you cover that in module 1. Its just an assessed road ride.

yea, you should pass that no problem then, what bike are you doing the tests on? has anyone ever tried doing a u-turn on the sv? is it me or is it impossibly difficult :???:

I'll still be doing the test on my CG because im on a restricted licence. Any bike with clip ons will be hard/impossible to u turn! My instructor couldn't U-turn on his CBF600 naked in the same space i could U turn the cg (the handlebars turn so much on the cg).

It definitely is harder with clipons, my 125 had clipons and I could barely u-turn it whereas I found my naked sv much easier. (lost the knack now :smt053)

did you do 'the manouvre' in the dry magpie?
