Posted April 3, 201311 yr Had my MOD1 test this morning and failed. Everything went fine until the avoidance section when i went through the traps 1 kph too slow! i was asked to try it again and went through much faster at 56 kph but clipped the cone this time! what a bummer!

April 3, 201311 yr Author Someone just said at least it was a mistake under instruction, would have been worse if out on the road on my own. Yes good luck Welshwan just take your time and don't rush it.
April 4, 201311 yr Sorry to hear that, but stick at it! All this makes me wish I did it 10 years ago...
April 4, 201311 yr Sorry to hear that mate, better luck next time, Welshwan hope you pass, fingers crossed. When I did my test (1968!!) turned up on my old AJS 250 went round the block, waved at the nice man as he watched me go by and picked up my pass ticket 10 minutes later, all this faffing about with part1 this and mod that would make me buy a car, I have to admire all your patience and dedication.
April 4, 201311 yr Moderator I heard most fails are really down to nerves. find your chi and breathe. try and relax if you can.
April 4, 201311 yr Author Strangely enough Drewpy I was quite relaxed. After doing the emergency stop and getting the speed right I thought I would breeze the avoidance maybe over confidence did me in.
April 5, 201311 yr Unlucky mate. My boy did his mod 1 and his instructor told him to keep the bike in 2nd gear, it was a Suzuki vanvan, until it hit the rev limiter. This ensured he went through the speed trap at the right speed. It did and he passed
