You'll find your next lesson easy. My first one was about 8 hours and after 6 or so my brain refused to take anything else in and I just started riding like a cock. Was really worried but the next lesson I found it had all sank in pretty well. Just remember your lifesavers every time you change speed or direction and your right shoulder check before you move off. Lifesavers are always in the direction of travel so right just before turning right and left just before turning left etc. You'll probably find it alot easier once your brains had time to take it all in!

Yeah I bet that doesn't help, I got lucky with my instructor, nice bloke and he was the spitting image of Winston Churchill. And you should count yourself lucky with the Cg, I had to learn on a Kymco pulsar that constantly kicked itself back into neutral and had orgasm giving strength revs at 7k :blink: Just look at the awful thing!
