Hi all.
![]() Getting a bit nervous now. Got my test this afternoon at 2:30. I had been having a nightmare with my U turns, they were fine to start with but after putting my foot down once the gremlins started! I found another thread about this and read some really helpful posts. My last lesson was fine and I did quite a few turns and they were all fine. ![]() I don't remember being this nervous for my car test? (That was 14 years ago when I was a Cocky 18 year old tho!) Hopefully be out on the SV later!!! |

Have a good one. Remember rev the knackers off of it to give more ballance and slip the clutch good. Though im sure you know that.
Good luck! Though I hope you dont need that. |

Press the button to cancel the indicators every few seconds (except when turning, or waiting at a junction - obviously!
You'll be fine. Treat it as another lesson. |

Good luck for the test, however if you are touch and go on the U-turn, this close to the new test if it was me i would take it on a 125 and pass , ok i would be restricted but hey at least i had my licence before the new test came in.

good luck.
i sucked at u turns and on the practice run with instructor before test i put my foot down on all but 1 practice un turns. on the actual test i just used bit too many revs slipped the clutch less than i would and used the back brake to stop it tearing away. i got a minor for it but hey. this was more luck than judgement. you will be fine. i noticed that the nerves kept my concentartion sharp and talking to yourself through all the stuff outloud helped me. any hoo good luck mate. |

Thanks for the good luck messages!
I had been doing the U turns fine from the start on both 125 and 500's. It was just the one time that I put my foot down that put doubt in my mind. I know I can do them, it's just confidence (but not too much!!!) I'll let you know later ![]() |
