Nup, the guy that tested me was using a honda c90, and he let me blat around a bit to get the hang of it, those brakes UGH they didnt work properly, just felt like someone jabbed a stick in the spokes![]()

I also did my bht without previous experience. All I had was a bit of blast around on my friend's 50cc scooter, some I know didn't even have that when they did the bht
I have deep pockets. It's just that it's a deep empty pocket...........

Find a empty carpark and practise there or go to a industrial area like in the weekend when no one is around and practise there as well.
Have fun learning to ride and take care out there on the roads.![]()

No ... it's masturbation on wheels. Not quite big enough for two people but a hell of a lot of fun by yourself.Originally Posted by gt244
I had an FXR until last March and they are pretty good to learn on. Take your time and remember that while the road may seem hard, at least it doesn't move under your wheels like gravel and dirt surfaces do.
Grow older but never grow up
i had been ridding for awhile before i got my licence and i actually learnt a lil bit from the guys at pass right when i did the basic handling course.
there were people on the couse who had never touched a bike before the instructors took them aside and spent some good time with them and made sure they had gotten the hang of ridding at low speed and basic skills from getting on the bike to emergency stops before passing them......this took a few hours for a few of the people but id have to say what they lernt made them alot more confident about getting on a bike and was well worth there money.
so in other words youll be fine so go do the test![]()

Good on yer GT244, and nice lil bike too. I used to go for a fang on my mates FXR a fair bit. Entertaining, good sound and quick enough. Another guy I ride with a lot has one and he's done good distance on it too.
Luck on learning. Just take it at your own speed, relax and have fun. Warning, you will get hooked.
