just relax... they let you ride the course for about 3 hours solid before the official test and give you pointers so you can pass easily

relax do your best and if all else fails and you do fail it isn't the end of the world. Book in for another go at it and have another shot, it doesn't mean you can't ride it just means you had a hiccup.

Now that I've been all nice and such.

Be confident and have a crack.... :P

cheers and good luck.

Just relax, the tests are not as hard as they seem ;) I take it you have been riding round a bit, while on your "L's"

Where are you taking the test?

Would be happy to spend some time, but I'm up on the Central Coast. If, that is fine with you, then let me know.
Otherwise good luck, you'll be fine, just leave the nerves at home :lol: :lol:

Best surgestion to do is hire their bike and do the test with it, cruises are easier to do u turns, Not saying that you cant do it on a sport bike my 2 cents

I've gone into every driving test I've done singing "always look on the bright side of life", I've never failed at test (Car, Motorcycle and forklift). It sort of help with the nerves.

The ZZR250's are a good thing for the test . The problem's tend to be with CBR250's etc. Cruisers can be a bitch as they tend to be long and if your not used to the seating position it can be a bugger.

If you hire one it'll be a CB250 or similar which is pretty good. I always tend to think you should do it on what you ride as you're used to your own bike.
