had my test at 7:55 this morning, at willagee.
I got the german guy, my instructor told me that hes a good assesor.
He gave me instruction like i was a 3 year old, but at least that made it clear what he wanted.
Did everything fine except hitting a speed hump at 50 cos the sun was shining in my face. At the end he asked me what i though i did wrong, so i said the speed hump thing, his responce was "You didnt crash did you" so it was all good.
So im wrapped. looking for a bike now, whos got one?
cheers
Shaun

Hi Shaun,
yeah i had that German dude for my RE test last year. My instructor (Lester, Andrews Driving School) actually specifically told me not to slow down much for speed bumps because he knows the German guy hates it when bikers slow right down to the posted limit for them  Apparently German dude is really big on testing riders confidence and he reckons those that slow down too much for bumps are less confident or something.
So congrats mate on passing.
My Hyo GT250 is for sale (havent got the ad up yet) if you into those things give me a message.
cheers

Hey mate if you want to spend a little less, i'll be selling my blue '05 VTR250 in a while's time. It has been dropped and has some ugly cosmetic damage, hence i'll be asking around $4800, and prepared to be v.reasonable for PSB'ers.
