    Haha

    Cheers guys, at least I'm not riding something I can't handle!

    Well, for a learner's licence I can imaging they won't let us loose on a 600.

    Duh

    Yeah, Rosebank rd use gn125's and gn250's. Pretty good guys, I was the only one out of 4 that passed when I sat mine! there was one guy who was so bad that he got demoted to a scooter, even then, I don't think he was allowed to do the test!!

    Its easy as though, you should have no worries . I had never ridden and was fine.

    WOW!! he must have been pretty crap man! I did mine at rosbank as well, had never ridden before, I was scared stiff in the seat and took 3/4 of the time to get comfortable enough to ride properly. In the end I passed quite easily though. But was scared stiff and got worse and worse at the begining. My knuckles were glowing WHITE lol
    Got my restricketed last week though

    Ha

    I'm savin some money and doing the test straight up. Helps I've done offroading before though, which requires low speed, weaving, etc. I should do fine...

    Bloddy bugger! The rain might be here on Monday, the day of the test, garsh!

    I did my test with riderskills at Rosebank Rd. Me and another guy. They have scooters and GN125s, but I was on my RG150 and another guy on his GPX250.

    The other guy failed because he missed the 'emergency stop in this painted box on the ground' bit twice.
