Full licence motorbike road test

**johnnz2015** · 19th August 2015, 12:02

Hi. Folks.

I am going to attend the full licence motorbike road test on this Friday. This is my first try. Does anyone have any idea how it is going to be conducted? Heard the instructions will be given through the walkie talkie? I was worrying where they gonna put the walkie ? Just want to make sure I can hear them clearly...

I'm sure you are an expert with small communication devices. Given the response above, just make sure it is not on "vibrate mode" ...

It wont be a walkie talkie, it will be a one way communication system, you can hear the instructor but you'll not be able to communicate back. It will be inside your helmet between your ear and helmet padding.

Thanks everyone ... I will update it after the test.

Depends on who you are doing it with - some have 2 way things that sit inside the helmet, some are 1 way.

as for advice, watch your speed, watch your lines, don't ride like a plonker.

How long ago did you do your restricted, because there's virtually no difference in the tests.

There is a big difference in the CBTA tests that I did - Restricted was longer and had a bigger focus on urban riding, whereas full was shorted and more emphasis on open road riding and lines.
