CBT and Theory DONE - SV650.org

Just to let people know, I've passed my CBT, and also passed the Theory test too.
Now to get lessons on "big" bikes for the full license test.
Any pointers!?

Enjoy yourself.

Also, listen to the instructor. They should make sure you are riding to pass your test.

After you pass, go and learn how to ride a bike properly.

Thanks for comment.
Also, I was wondering if I should splash out ona little 125 to "practice" on whilst I take the 500cc lessons?

Well done so far

Buy a smaller bike for practice? Wouldn't bother if I were you. You'll pass the test before long, you'll have a 125 that you don't want and will have the hassle of getting rid of it.

As per scoobs, look, listen & take in everything the instructor tells you, once you get through the test the real learning begins.
As for getting a 125, only you can make that decision, my son & other half just did the lessons & both sailed through the test, personally i'd save the money for better things.
Well done on passing the theory & getting the cbt & good luck for your test

Congrats! As scoobs said listen, focus and most of all have fun!

Well done and good luck for the lessons. Forget the 125 as they will teach you all you need to know and like the others said u will be stuck with a 125 on your hands....after riding a 500......unless you can get a dirt cheap one you will not lose money on in a part ex or private sale

When it comes to the test, ask your examiner if he's brought in his sarnies.

My examiner made us go for a long ride just to pop home and get his lunch.

Long time to be bricking it.

Good luck, hope it goes well.

Forgot to say earlier, my top tip is to remember to turn your indies off as soon as after you complete the manoover (sp?) - if you leave them on then you will fail as it's a major fault. I got paranoid about it and all during the test kept pressing the cancel button just to make sure.
