My test tip. Don't run over your examiner when he steps out for the emergency stop. Bloody jay walking pedestrians

Well actually it was a late mate of mine that happened to. Came round the corner expecting to see his examiner step out. instead his examiner was wrapped round the front of an identical bike.

Keep calm, keep relaxed, ride for yourself. By the time you get to your test, you'd have done everything loads of times anyway - just think of ot as a short trianing session, because at the end of the day, it almost is.

And the best thing about the riding test is you already know the answers

Gday.Good luck with the test.
Don't rush in with buying the first bike you see,as there's plenty of choice of older SVs out there.
What sort of budget are you on,and have you thought about the cost of kit,lid and boots?

I think he meant don't think it's over after the U-turn.

good luck in the Us it isn't to terrible but you have to be able to ride a bike a little to pass. I was able to go out to the place the test is given and practice one weekend before idk if you can do the same. Welcome to the sv forum
