  • I head to Pitstop Training in Newport on the Isle of Wight to get my first taste of the motorcycle module 1 test. Watch as I give a full POV and commentary of all aspects of the test as I start my training with Paul. We tackle the 7 manouvres you are expected to be proficient at, these include wheeling the moped or motorcycle and using the stand, riding a slalom and figure of 8, a slow ride, a U-turn, cornering and a controlled stop, cornering and an emergency stop, cornering and hazard avoidance. Paul gives great tuition and before long I'm whizzing around on 650cc and 750cc motorcycles including Honda CB650R and Honda Hornet 750. Will I be able to complete all of the manouvres? Tune in to find out!!

    Did my mod 1 training on a Duke790 and the test on a Duke 890. Got 0 minors on mod 1 and 1 minor on the mod 2. Now ride a Yamaha Fazer 600, went from 14bhp to 98bhp. Love it.

      Nice one. I think it is bonkers really that you can roll up with for your CBT with no prior experience and be bombing along the road at 60mph a few hours later! Then for mod 1 you don't just jump up to a bike with say double the power, it is a massive jump. Saying that they only go as fast as you ride it so all good. Your Fazer sounds nice 🚀

    First big bike I rode was a cb650r - same colours as this one - on my renew CBT course, the bloke asked us if we were planning to get the full licence, and because we said we were, he was like: "sweet, we'll get the 650s out then", I was well chuffed.. I did my DAS on an MT07, which I really wanted to get, but ended getting a Kawasaki ER6f, which is another great bike though, and im happy as Larry with it.

    I took my test nearly fifty years ago. The two massive difference was that training was non existent and, as it was so long ago I can't remember how much it cost🤔, I would guess it was less than ten quid! The only help I had was a mate that was a police officer, who was an advanced motorcyclist and, car driver. He taught me how to do hill starts, (I didn't have a clue)! Anyway, best of luck with the the test, I'm shure you will pass👍.

    Good stuff.. practice the hell out of everything, clutch feathering, gently dragging the rear brake, making sure you have full confidence you can adjust your speed without the dreaded panic brake.. the guy on the mod1 with me failed because the panic braked twice, i passed because i didnt let the bike get away from me and micro adjusted.. i knew i had full control at slow speeds, it was the swerve that was a blur in practice.. id complete it multiple times, and get a well done, but it was all happening faster than my brain could handle.. i kept saying i wanted to do it again, and eventually, i had the bike exactly where i wanted it while being laser focused, not just where it happened to go while my brain was screaming SWERVE!
    Only you know how you feel on the bike and during the exercises, so be honest with yourself and grind out the weaknesses.
    I think the reason i passed first time was because i got to a point where i was enjoying myself..
    You got this 👍

    Here is a wee tip for you that i promise will help you . See when you did both the emergency stop and then the hazard avoidance. You were trying to flick in to second gear at around 11mph on the turn . When on a 650cc type bike the first gear would have carried you round easily to the straight part ( the gravelly part ) before you change up to second gear . It’s very understandable why you did this as that is what we do on a 125cc …. You did great though and good luck , You’ve got this mate 👍🏼

    • @TwoWheelsTommy
      @TwoWheelsTommy  2 місяці тому +1

      Nice one Ryan. It is worth practicing a little on a 125, but don't focus too much on them as it is much different, and easier on a big bike. Use all of the space available to you (It is bigger than you think), some people keep it too tight as they just want to get around the cone and put their foot down. Go wider, bigger, and faster and you will be much more stable. Remember you only need to prove your ability to an examiner on your MOD 1 test, which will be done on a bigger bike for the A licence. Your training for MOD 1 on the bigger bike will set you in good stead to smash your test. Good luck 🚀

      @Ryan-wu4br I hear you. If you use all of the space available to you, you won't need to lean it that much , as long as you have the space. If it does start to go, you can use the accelerator to correct it.

    How much practice did you get in between your cbt pass and mod 1 training?

      @TwoWheelsTommy  3 місяці тому +1

      I've been riding for about 6 months since doing my CBT, in that time I've ridden less than 1000 miles. One of the people on this course did his CBT a week prior so you don't need a bunch of experience to get the job done, as long as you can do the manouvres you are good to go for your Mod 1 test💪

      @whollymindless 100%. Even in 2nd at 35mph you can tell there is much more to go in 2nd with a little more twisty on the throttle. Quite scary really!

      It's good to try different bikes if the training centre has them, so that you can find the best one suited for you to do the actual test on.

    • @TwoWheelsTommy
      @TwoWheelsTommy  3 місяці тому +1

      @twinpotracer You would think that is true, however we try all bikes since taking the mod 1 test for us involves a ferry crossing and a 45 minute ride to the test centre on roads on the mainland that many aren't familiar with so it is a good idea to try all of the bikes prior. On the day they try to give you the bike you want to ride on your actual test but this is not always possible, especially since candidates sometimes travel over as a group since it is so time consuming for the instructor to keep travel back and forth to the mainland for the test. Chances are some of them will want to do the test on the same bike as another canditate and they can't both ride the same bike there!
