Nothing.
They cancelled my Test for tomorrow earliest next test date is the 24th November. So I am being forced to buy a 125 in the interm or else I will forget everything I have just done.
Looking on the bright side I was told my inexperience could have been my down fall so I have a few weeks before the test to get my experience up before the test.
The three biles I am looking at the moment are SUZUKI GZ MARAUDER,
HONDA CBR 125 or YAMAHA YBR 125.
I am hoping I can borrow a bike off a friend but if not, will just get a very cheap run around at the moment.

thats harsh mate. use the extra time practicing wisely, but try not to pick up any bad habits. after a cheap run about, well try a honda cg125, cheap reliable and easy to sell on.

THats the biggest problem no lessons between now and then and I do need to watch for the bad habits.
I am tempted to put in a complaint after all if I cancelled the day before then I would have lost my fee and everything.

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, beer in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming

LOL @ OX.
It should be interesting to ride without a voice in my ear.

Well if you look on the bright side you've got a couple of weeks to ride the ***FILTERED WORD*** e out of your local test routes. The better you know them, the better prepared you'll be. I'd also recommend the CG125, not much of a head turner but they're totally bulletproof. Good luck!

Before you criticise someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you do have a go at them, you're a mile away and you've got their f*cking shoes.

i cant believe they cancelled, thats tough, the cg125's are great, i loved mine. i practiced a bit of what i had learnt between lessons, like the turn in the road without putting foot down, took a few tries but i did it. strangly enough i tried it on my cbr 600 the other day and failed!

i have known people that have gone from a total novice to a full das holder in 3 days
so that bull faeces bout being inexperienced is just a excuse
put a formal complaint in and ask for your money back so you can go with another company i would mate

I did mine from novice to 1 day C whatever thing it is then 2 weeks later 3 days training and test on the 4th. so it should be ok but the continuity was important.
