mailee Posted November 29, 2012 Posted November 29, 2012 Well after my lesson today my instructor has decided to put me in for the mod 1. Result! i am not sure yet when it will be as the test centre is busy but looking forward to it.......and hoping I pass.
Grouch Posted November 29, 2012 Posted November 29, 2012 Nice one and well done. You'll pass it easy.
j0hn Posted December 1, 2012 Posted December 1, 2012 The only thing I was worried about on my Mod 1 was the U-turn - I know, it's easier than the figure of eight but I kept putting my foot down during lessons. Did it without any problems and passed it first time on my test though Here are some tips I was given - which I'm sure you would have already been filled in on: always do your checks/observations before moving off, specially during the manual handling - treat it as if you were on a real road look up and focus on a fixed object in the distance for your U-turn - this is where I had trouble because I kept looking down and down came the foot as soon as you come out of the circuit, open your throttle - you should be in second gear if for some reason - maybe bad weather - you lock your rear wheel during the emergency stop, you might be given a minor as long as you release the brake and stop the bike from skidding Good luck!
