Bike Test!!

I've only got the CBR400RR but they go well just need to keep the revs up,

Mates got the FZR400RR and VFR400 performance wise there all roundabout the same,

Anothers got a ZXR400 but thats a tank compared to the other 400's,

ones got the gsx600 and thats very grunty just a bit outdated in size now

and the other two have got R6's and there amasing bikes!! Front end seems the lightest of all our bikes, there very light for what they are and well if i didnt like my Honda's so much that would be the bike for me get to test ride a ZXR636 soon though so we'll see..

erm quite frankly no one on this earth can offer a gaurunteed pass, unless of coursa you persuade them with a little cash or something lol. say you fail the theory before you even atempt teh test, you'd have buggered it up allready lol. after a couple yrs of riding bike are pennies to insure...

thinking about going for this in the next month or 2, either that or a t34 turbo not sure what is going to give me more fun

can get Direct Access on a 3 days course for £471 inlcuding theory all test fees, and a gaurunteed pass.
Been on bikes most of my life.. mostly crossers though, been out on my brothers bike a few times, which is now just sitting in the back garden doing nothing GSF500 full fairing model (same as the puff daddy music video, ill be missing you )

Always fancied an R1 although their is no chance i would get one of these straight away, was thinking VFR400 or GSXR600 mmmmm

Opinions?!?

it normally means you pay that set price until you pass, so even if it takes 2 or 3 times.

Ive down my CBT twice with the place before, once in 2001 and again in 2003 as you need to renew every few years, also done the systems test!

they have offered a set price of £471 until i pass, if i fail they put my out with a personal instructor and put me through the test again

Dean just do your full bike test, £471 is a very good price for a guaranteed pass
Make sure you do your direct access though and not the 33bhp restriceted one as its pointless as its the same test.
Have you done your theory yet?

Heres mine....



Bought it last week, got my test next week Bikes are so much better than cars for summer fun! Even better if you have a mate who has a bike too, my mate has just bought an R1, so weve been out having fun, I'd recommend anyone getting a bike!

is expensive tho, you need all the gear for it, Security, and then money to modifying it! but still well worth the grin factor!

Yeah but once you have the gear you don't need anymore, its not that expensive because most bikes are fairly easy to work on so you can do the work yourself. Most expensive is buying the bike and test imo. Tax is only £40
