Good luck with your test,dont think I'd like to try a U-turn on a 748 while being observed and judged about it,just be confident and I'm sure you'll manage.
You might find getting insurance for your first bike harder than the test though.

..Just start with a great burn out, do a wheelie in 2nd gear at 50 mph and finish the exam with a great stoppie....
If you survive you are going to get the licence...NOT

Good luck mate, I am sure you will be fine.. keep your left hand on the clucth ready...

I am not au fait with the whole direct access this having done the old 2 part test with the examiner on foot.

Does your 748 have to be restricted? What are the rules for a new starter these days?

Make mine a cider.

welcome - good luck, I feel jealous as I had to ride a odd collection of junk till I eventually got a Ducati ! I cant help but feel that the KH125 I took my test on may have been easier to handle, what is the minimum sized bike you can do the direct access on ?

Half a guiness and pernod, if your still at the virtual bar

Welcome to the club. A good choice of bike too, although I'll reserve my judgement that you're doing your test on it. The way to do a u-turn is with your knee down! Good luck anyway...

Ade.
