I noticed a few times there weren't any lifesavers when changing from position 2 to 3, a good example is at 20:30 when only a mirror check was used to change position and then he even changed lane, to avoid parked traffic on the left, with only a questionable lifesaver done after he had already crossed the line. I was under the impression that it is absolutely essential to do lifesavers in these scenarios, even changing lane positions, and that not doing so could result in a fault during the test. I would be very grateful if you could provide some clarification about when it is necessary to do lifesavers and whether anything was done wrong in the example I highlighted, and if so, what faults did he receive from doing this. Thanks!

Very good wide angle camera.spot on commentary.actually showing and demonstrating all the correct procedures.i will definitely pass if I keep watching this video.

Mod 2 tomorrow and I'm watching these on repeat

Please make videos like show me tell me.

Do you have any tips to stay calm on yiur cbt?

Morning Rich and team. Saw the thumbnail and thought "I recognise that door". Again just want to say a huge thanks to you all for all the work you put into my CBT then MOD 1 & 2.

Best video I've seen regarding these excercises!

Thanks a lot, I pass my test, your videos really really help. Thanks again

My examiner took me out and 20 mins in he took me back to test centre.never asked me to do my own way .

Excellent . Thanks.

Unfortunately the nearest test routes to me are 34 miles away in an area i never go to. Theres a choice of 5 fairly complex routes. I would say to anyone who can, spend time driving or riding the test routes long before your test. Use satnav to confirm the speed on every road etc as they can change without noticable indications. Remember the examiner already knows all the things you are trying to find out on your test while dealing with nerves and new surroundings. Not to mention the traffic thats trying to knock you off your bike if they can.

Just passed mod 1. I have a fantastic instructor but your videos in no small way contributed to be passing first time. Thank you for taking the time to create this fantastic series on mod 1

Just wanted to leave a comment to say thank you. Passed my test a few weeks ago and your videos really helped. Keep up the good content. 👍

I have a question. When we are at a set of lights, do we do both lifesavers/ shoulder check before moving off?

Mod 2 tomorrow! Wish me luck!

Is it OK to ride over street humps?

why is it that CBT instructors are almost always highly strung and DAS ones are incredibly chill!

At 10:08, do you have to check over your left shoulder too on your test or is that extra work? Also at 12:31, should you do both life savers before moving off? Watching all your videos for my mod 2 😊

Thank you, this is the way to train, a real walkthrough

Best one ever

I really appreciate your support! I have my mod 1 exam tomorrow, and I'm feeling a mix of nerves and excitement. I've been struggling with this one, but I'm determined to give it my best shot. I'll keep you posted on how it goes! The ther exercises have been going great, so here’s hoping I can carry that momentum forward!

Can you swerve to avoid going over the speedbumps? As I saw at 1.30 she swerved to the middle, i guess if clear to do so, but surely a a fail if traffic coming the other way?

Still seems like yesterday, I passed my test under the instruction of Richard in Feb 2005!!

Thanks for the video, does that mean I have to keep pushing until I finish the corner? or just a little bush at the beginning of the corner?

Fantastic, I see great value in those videos, great for anyone training for their mod2 ...and beyond.

Do you think it’s possible and how likely could someone pass their DAS after CBT the. They only book 5 day course would you think they could pass there DAS? I’ve passed my CBT well completed it and I’m 44 and wanted to move up to a 300cc bike for next bike as I fin d 125cc bikes are a lot harder to be safe than a 300cc I ride on private properly as the bike had more power allowing easy pull offs and control from me at least I’m hoping I can do it after only a 5 days course but also wanted to ask if I book my DAS which includes training if I’m not ready to go for my mod 1/2 tests can I book more lessons and keep practicing until they think and I think I can pass?

The reason so many look over the left shoulder when doing the life savers when parked on the side of the road is due to being told none stop in our CBT to do it 😅 it’s so confusing. My CBT instructor said I had to look over both shoulders when pulling off at all times now I see many say in DAS you don’t have to

Great piece of advice. I clipped the blue cone last week. Think I was going to fast. Booked for December. Praying for a result

Well done Sam.

Hi Richard, I just like to say many thanks for the videos, as l passed my MOD2 full A today 1st attempt. Cheers 🍻

Hi i recently passed my mod 2 i still watch your videos love the content ❤

4:53 literally what happened to me!

Hi Richard, I just wanted to write a quick note to say thank you so much for your time and effort uploading these videos. I've been watching them (repeatedly in some cases!) in preparation for my DAS, and I only wish I had an instructor who was as jovial and conscientious as you come across in your videos. I ended up learning far more from yourself remotely than I did from the instructor who was 'training' me. Nevertheless, I did my MOD1 and MOD2 today passing first time. Thank you again!

Where are we finding jackets and helmets for £40-£50 am struggling to get them so cheap

On the point of letting the pedistrian cross on a two lane road. My examiner gave me a minor fault for doing exactly this. Apparently my stopping in lane 2 to let pedistrians cross was wrong. Lane 1 was clear when i stopped but i was told a vehicle could have over taken me on my left and collided with the pedestrian as they stepped off the pavement. So it appears the examiner can fail you or not at their discretion!

Hi , do you keep left indicator on until you are told to pull away and change to right indicator thanks

Doing my A1 light mod 2 test soon. Will they still take you on a 70mph as my bike only goes 55 to 60 tops

Got my cbt tomorrow If I downshift into 2nd coming up to a a red light but it changes to green right before I would have stopped , say at this point I’m doing 3-4 mph, do I leave it in second and accelerate away or do I need to go into 1st with me going so slow? Hope that makes sense, thanks mate. Your videos have been priceless.

Hi Richard, Thanks again for all your efforts. I hope you enjoyed your tea afterwards. You must have built a big thirst. Learnt a lot again.

Failed my test yesterday for the fact that I was coming from a minor road going to a major road and didn't close the gap between me and the curb and the examiner came and fit his motorcycle there. My question is is that a major fail for not closing that gap? Thanks

When pulling over , do we keep our left indicator on whilst pulled in, or cancel it as soon as we have pulled in ?

Your videos helped me through mod 1, watching the mod 2 videos now ready for that test

Hi Richard, thank you for your videos and essence commentary on MOD2, they really aided my PASS last Friday the 18th of October 24. It was an intense test in the bustling town of Shrewsbury. For all those preparing for MOD 2 watch the videos and best of luck.

Useful info for any rider planning to do the Module 1 test in Mallusk, Belfast, Northern Ireland. The course is set up very differently to what you see on KZbin. Be prepared for a much tighter uturn and a much tighter figure of 8. Also, unlike in England, when you do the figure of 8 you cannot go around the last yellow cone.

Hi therw What is the distance between the cones for slalom and the 8 also for the curb exercise Cant find anything online specific. Great videos will practice Accordingly Can't find anything online

These videos are great! Thank you for taking the time to make them…

This channel should have way more views and subs, absolutely spot on. Got my cbt on the 29th, praying it isn’t pissing it down haha.

Why i like my umdsr ex it has combined breaking

Passed my bike test 29/12/1963, three days after my 16th birthday; got rid of my bike in 1970, first child; only ridden twice since then even though I hold a full bike licence! Thought about doing a 'Back to Biking' course, but thanks to your excellent videos and first class instruction techniques I've decided to prove my riding abilty by starting from scratch. By the way; some idiot's put the foot controls on the wrong side of your bikes! Regards Keith

I am 64yrs old from Glasgow Scotland.Have my test next month and only require an A1 licence so haven't went to a driving school since passing my CBT. Passed My MOD 1 by watching Richard's Video's on the carpark, each video breaking down the manouvers from Manuaul handling to swerve avoidance excercise. Wonderful videos, all of them. Thankyou from Myself and 10 other Scooter and geared bike enthusiasts. 😊😊😊😊 John L
