BHST info?

[SolidSnake]

Hey guys,

Im wanting to do my BHST soon but am not sure where to do it.

I have zero experience at riding a motorbike.. i am however fluent at driving a a manual car and a pushbike.

I heard that passrite have a bad rep for there bhst, any reasons behind that?

I live on the North Shore in Auckland. Is there anyone near by that will teach me and then do the BHST straight after?

Many thanks

Did mine with Passrite over in Otahuhu or whereever (I live on the shore too) and it was fine. Go do it.

I was exactly the same, drive a manual and rode BMX for years and it came totally naturally. The hardest part was stopping and getting it into neutral ;D. Other then that my manual car training and 2-wheel experience paid off, it was just like riding a push bike down a hill!

I had watched a lot of Mordeth13's videos and that's what pushed my interest to a point where I couldn't be a spectator anymore. In this video he runs through how to ride a motorbike for the first time.

//EDIT: And here's the link to the book by Keith Code - A Twist of the Wrist 2: The Basics of High-Performance Motorcycle Riding (http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/showpost.php?p=1230293&postcount=12). It will definitely be helpful if you plan on riding like a man some day.

Good, last thing I want to worry about is some crazed brother of yours with a bi-pedal nuclear missile equipped battle tank.

Thanks guys for all the positive feedback, It makes a big difference to the team at Riderskills to know we are delivering a professional service. Quality training has always been our main goal.

I would like to take the time to acknowledge Tricia O'Connor as one of the few motorcycle trainers that we would be very happy to recommend when our books are full. Tricia is very qualified and patient and an extremely accomplished rider. Currently Tricia is in the process of setting up her riding school on the north shore (roadcraft) so please show her some support.

Tricia can be contacted on 021 269 3246

I'm taking a mate to Riderskills this weekend.

He's my 3rd referral.

Wouldn't go anywhere else - patience of a saint, and a bloody good teacher, as well as fair assessor.

I can't compare, but I did mine elswhere, and thought it was great, but it was a lot more expensive, so yeah - go Riderskills! (Especially as I have ridden with people who learnt at Riderskills, and they were all skilled riders!)
