Hey,
i've just had my first test today, i've been riding for 18months so wasn't too worried about it. I got 2 minors and 1 serious! Instant fail!
I failed for not observing a car while moving to the right lane to turn right. I asked the examiner during the debriefing
"do you mean the silver cavelier?" and he said
"yes"
.......somewhat confusing?! if i saw the car enough the recognise and remember it where was the 'lack of observation'? if he expects me to pass on my next attempt without more training - why do i need to do it again?! seems like bullsh*t to me! such a pain as i have a new SV650S waiting for me in the dealership! Has anyone else had troubles with the tests? i don't want to believe the story that examiners have to be close to the national average- but it wouldn't surprise me at the moment.
