Hi all,
I'm amazed by the complexity of the mobike system here and wonder what yall think of riding a full size bike on a cbt for a while. I intend to take a 2 day DAS course in Feb but I'm trying to save money by getting used to the bigger bike without getting lots of lessons- I've been running around on a 125 and am buying a cb600. What do you think the penalty would be if caught by the ol bill? Would it jeopordize my chances of getting the full license in the future?
cheers & merry Xmas

I had never even sat on a bike and went and did an intensive course, cbt followed directly by DAS, by end of first and second day I was knackered but I survived it. Unfortunatly my test was cancelled on the firday and I had to wait a month due to the examiner needing the dentist. I had no lessons in the month just rode a 125 took my test and passed with just two minors for balance. If you have a 125 ride it every day even if its only for an hour, do emergency stops at 30, do u-turns (with out putting foot down) so when you your DAS and then test it will be easier. --
