Just regarding the entries below, I completely agree with learning and doing the test on the bike youre going to be riding.
I have a ZZR250 and was told I shouldnt take it on the test, but I'd made up my mind that if I was going to learn to ride - it was going to be on the bike I'd be riding for the next 12 months. I was a little worried at first because obviously it doesnt handle the turning and stuff as well as other bikes could but eventually I got the hang of it and am happy to say I passed my R-E this morning on it!!

get yourself a CB250 for the test too!
Bought a ZZR and was practicing on that. Its a mad bike to ride when you have your license. But to do your test.....use an instructors CB.
I couldn do O turns for crap on my bike, went for a quick lesson with the instructor before and used his CB for the test and was like a pro. Bike made a huge difference.
Also had a go on a gpx a while back and that was alright for them too.[/b]

Erm, am I the only one who has a problem with this?
If own, and are going to be riding a ZZR, learn to ride your ZZR.
What good is it passing your test on a CB and then going out riding a bike you're incapable of controlling properly?
You should really learn to control the bike you'll ride at some point - it may as well be before you get your R-E license...
