Posted April 30, 201311 yr Hey guys, I'm on an absolute high at the moment - just come back from my Mod 1, and PASSED!! I can't even begin to tell you how nervous I was about this particular test. Out of the CBT, Theory and looming Mod 2, it was the Mod 1 that worried me the most. So, I can breathe a sigh of relief now, enjoy the rest of my day and focus on Mod 2!
April 30, 201311 yr Author Well done, when is Mod 2? Thanks guys! Haven't booked Mod 2 yet, about to do that now. It'll be some time next week hopefully.
April 30, 201311 yr Moderator Well done bippo I knew you'd pass it easy , from what I've seen those L plates have overstayed their welcome and they wont be there long now
April 30, 201311 yr Author Well done bippo I knew you'd pass it easy , from what I've seen those L plates have overstayed their welcome and they wont be there long now Ha ha, thanks Airhead! Hopefully next time we go for a ride I'll have a bike that's better able to keep up with your Bandit...! But failing that, I'm sure the lack of L plates will help to streamline my YBR...
April 30, 201311 yr Author Congrats,are you window shoping for a new bike yet?what catches your eye? Thanks DT! Yeah I've settled on a Kawasaki ER-6f. I've gone around and sat on a few (Yammy, Suzuki etc) and this one feels the most comfortable (for me anyway). On top of that the school I'm learning with uses the naked version (ER-6n) which has given me a confident feeling about them.
April 30, 201311 yr Well done bippo so CBT then theory when you pass the mod 1 what can you ride a 125cc still until you pass the mod 2 and that must be done within 2 years of mod1 is this correct
April 30, 201311 yr Author Thanks Sparky! CBT is valid for 2 years. So if I don't pass my module 2 within two years of obtaining my CBT, I'll need to re-take things again. Same applies to the theory test which is also valid for two years. Basically, I now have two years (from when I passed my theory test, not module 1) to complete my module 2, and then I'm done. I'm old enough to go for direct access so I'm learning on a 650cc and once I pass my module 2 I won't have any restriction to my licence. Younger people have a restriction on the type of full licence they can get - quite clear information regarding that can be found here: http://www.geton.co.uk/Routes_to_Riding_January_2013. Regardless of that though, they still have to go through the whole CBT/theory/mod 1&2 route, but just with different size engines.
April 30, 201311 yr YAY bippo!!!! happy days!!!! chuffed for ya! Unfortunately i am one of the 'younger ones' and i'm only allowed to do my A2 atm, but once that's done, just two year and then big boys test
April 30, 201311 yr Author YAY bippo!!!! happy days!!!! chuffed for ya! Cheers Welshy!! It's a great feeling isn't it?! Have you got your Mod 2 sorted yet?
April 30, 201311 yr this Friday at about 1pm!!!! got a two hour lesson on thus though hows about you?
April 30, 201311 yr fantastic bips I knew you would do it, as we say in scouse-land, "am made up for yer"
April 30, 201311 yr Author this Friday at about 1pm!!!! got a two hour lesson on thus though hows about you? Good luck! This is for your A2 licence isn't it? Due to your age? Have you got plans to buy a bigger bike, or will you stick with your 125 for a while?
April 30, 201311 yr Author this Friday at about 1pm!!!! got a two hour lesson on thus though hows about you? Ahh balls, forgot to answer your question! Went to book my Mod 2 today, but the dates they had available didn't suit my work (I travel a fair bit), so I'm currently booked in for 23rd May. Pretty long wait but I'll keep an eye out for any cancellations that suit me.
