Yes not up to speed on it myself, Goff knows all about it, look for her posts, all i know is its getting much more of a bind, but good luck with it and stick at it whatever hoops the bloody authorities throw at you, you definitely wont regret it and soon have your WR250 (or WR400 Nice bikes them.
August 26, 200816 yr Author cheers, ive no doubt got lots of questions and stuff to ask on here, see u around
August 27, 200816 yr Hiya I'm a newbie too! - I heard that only 80% of instructors passed the new test. Its gonna involve a lot more control at low speeds and stuff. Figures of 8 like an ice skater Oo la la! Pirouette your self to a pass dude!!
August 27, 200816 yr Author hello, yeah i knw they say its getting harder, but to be honest i'll not know any different so im not all that bothered, ive done my car test, class 2 HGV and emergency fire appliance driving test in the past so this is just another one to have to get through! ball ache that the new test seems to have ground everything to a halt though right now.
August 27, 200816 yr Tell me about it, the council in Leeds are having real difficulty finding a spot for the new test center. They were refused planning application for an area the size of a football field that is only going to have 1 building on it, support 8 part-time staff and one full time. They deemed it "not the best use of space". W**kers
August 27, 200816 yr Author becky, congrats on passing your test by the way! how many lessons did you have and if you dont mind me asking what sort of cost was it?
August 27, 200816 yr Thanks dude! I don't mind you askin- I had done my cbt already so I had 4 full days (my test was at 1.30 on the 4th day). Two on a cg125 and two on a gs500. That cost 500 squid. But I failed! Then I went in for my test again just had two days, test on second day. That was 245. I got a discount of 60 after battering my eyelids- it might work for you! Quite expensive but deff worth it.
