Passed License test

**speights_bud** · 23rd March 2006, 22:11

Yep, booked restricted license test in for this morning at 10:15 and passed test no problemo, actually looking at the instructors notes i did everything right

.
Weather was a bit drizzly though and front brake packed a sad but managed to improvise for the short time.
Don't know what happened but the lever suddenly became rock hard and any pressure on it induced braking. Me thinks not such a good thing

. Any ideas on what the problem could be? (pads are in good cond. Though master cylinder has been feeling a bit dodgy for a while)

Ah well im just another biker out there now, i've lost my distinctive bright yellow L-plate

Thank you for your advise Froggy. Had he got it yesterday he could have but the Gixxer is wearing the new Pilot Sport so I would like to scrub it in myself thanks. 0 k's on it.
Well done Speights_Bud.

Congrats, Must be a good feeling getting rid of that L plate eh?

**speights_bud** · 24th March 2006, 10:34

Yep didn't take long to get the plate off, And it feels so good not having to think about being 30 k's overthe limit at all times:spudflip: .

No i don't think he would part with his baby tp me permanently. but considerations may be made to sell the 250 and buy his old 85 gixxer from its current owner.... maybe, in time.
