Ello.

Got a set of DVD's for the bike theory, official DSA ones. Your's for ermmm a tenner cheaper than whatever I paid?

I know they do the trick, missY_C passed her theory first time with these.


Also I'll have an early naked 650 for sale soon ;-)

Hi, from one newbie to another :smt042

I passed my test last Thursday (29/05) - it was a breeze.. Much better than expected. If I could do it ... anyone can. I'm tempted to write a novel here cos i just passed me test, but really if you ready you'll get thru it :) keep your wits about you, stay calm and enjoy the ride .. I bought a Honda XL125 to use for lessons and get a bit of extra practice on... :smt026 some would say it was silly as I could use the instructors bike, but it really helped getting out on the roads on my own. There has been great response and advice to your post, wont finish the novel ;) :lol:... so good luck, get the DVD's for the theory (they helped me a hellavu lot!) and enjoy!!

ps: traded the honda in and bought a real bike... SV650S - and loving it:smt055

pss - if i went slightly off topic here... so excited bout my new bike and first post.... wooohooo :smt041

welcome to the madhouse!! no-one has mentioned it yet, but be careful of bear and grinch. they're the local forum deviants ;) lol. good to see another person not too far from me getting out on a bike! if you can try and get your test done before oct as has been said. it'll save you some hassle as the new one seems pretty stringent, although this should make for better riders.

hehe, i don't think my mum was too impressed when i got back from the france day trip out and told her some of the speeds i was doing :rolleyes: (not that i'm condoning that kind of thing on beautiful french roads!!)
