I started riding in 1959, bothered to take the test in 1962 and still learnt one or two things watching this thanks. Just to give a laugh my clutch cable snapped as I approached the test centre, quickly into an ironmongers, bought some string, attached it clutch lever routed string to handlebar with a loop on it to stop it falling off. No clutch change up, yank the string for down. Yes I passed :-D

[@pede8889]

Very very cool story

[@inline4forlife]

I suffered from ptsd, panic disorder, social anxiety and claustrophobia when I did my test. If you only have to deal with doubts, nerves or a bit of shaking you have no idea how lucky you are. Despite of my severe mental anguish which is a gruesome disability I still went went for my test whatever happened, thank God everything went well because I forget all of my problems on the bike and even enjoyed it at times. I was so happy when I passed. It's therapy for me, nothing gives me more joy. I'm so much better these days and just love riding, never having to deal with traffic or heavy bills is a God send.

Thank you and a huge well done. Simon

[@profblack]

Really refreshing to see from the instructors perspective. While the learner is doing it by the book, the instructor doesn’t do a single lifesaver or observe the two second rule because he knows all too well how unnecessary they are. You know when you need to check, there shouldn’t be a quota for how many times you should be looking behind you every ten seconds.

[@callummclaine9160]

I think it’s not helmet cam, maybe Lifesavers are unnecessary. But a 2 second rule is great for newer riders, as it enables them to have enough time to react to stuff they never would of reacted to before.

[@akrim777]

When you're a learner there is a certain way you need to do things so that you're up to the 'standard'. With experience, you can adjust your riding style. Just because something is good or ok for someone advanced/experienced doesn't mean a newbie can do it safely.

[@noparentalguidance4423]

That is a top notch observation and made me lol because its so true!!! I hadn't noticed that!

[@ScramblerOfFrance]

@@callummclaine9160 the camera is mounted to the side of the helmet so you would see when the instructor does a life saver. But they are useful especially in England with tons of deliveroo drivers getting their CBT and flying by you, I use them when I’m in town but when I’m just out on the open road I don’t, unless overtaking

[@Google_Does_Evil_Now]

7:28 we can see the instructor's head take a slight dip to the left then right then back up and then it closes the distance to the student. I think the instructor has just checked his mirrors. Also other road users will see 2 motorcycles in high visibility waistcoats. Other road users are likely to be more careful towards these two motorcycles. "Examiner" or "Instructor" in big letters. Do you think the examiner/instructor is focusing on the learner so they cannot do their own lifesaver in case they miss something by the student?

[@Google_Does_Evil_Now]

19:40 car overtaking as you're both doing 30 in a 30, while going past a junction on the right, a parked car to the left forcing the novice to move to the right, and having a vehicle opposing approaching. And it probably says "Instructor" or "Examiner" on your Hi-Viz. Some people. That car driver could do with a retest, or some other punishment.

[@AshleyPomeroy]

What a twit - he ended up having to squeeze by an oncoming car and he had to stop at the lights anyway.

[@Studiggler]

[@dougster701]

Rothy Frags ah right, yeh it’s pretty extortionate tbf. Yeh I wasn’t a fan of Mod 1 and failed it first time on the U turn. It just feels artificial doing manoeuvres in a car park like that. Best advice for it is honestly just to try and relax and not get too bothered if you fail, happens to the best of us and honestly I failed both Mod1 and Mod 2 once and that’s after 5 years of riding on a CBT lol (went over the speed limit in mod2). It’s a pain but it’s not the end of the world having to re-take them and the majority of people will fail one, good luck for you though when you get around to it

@@MotorcycleRidersHub many thanks for the reply & kind thoughts, and as a follow up i thought i'd say that I passed :). no-one really enjoys any kind of examination i suppose, but in a funny way i sort of did, especially as i was quite prepared and it went very smoothly. The only (sortof) minor/comment i got was when i positioned my bike too much into the left on a left turn only, a by-product of me working on my positioning to prevent anything coming up the inside, so nothing to worry about really.

Watching this again is so nostalgic. I passed about 5 years ago I think, I used to watch loads of video. I used to get so nervous....like everyone I suppose. I used my own bike bandit 600..... Did my test in Llandrindod Wells..... Basically easiest place to pass in the UK. Been great since. Ridden a blackbird 2 up at 160mph.that was a shock. Now living in Europe for 2 years, haven't ridden a bike as its too dangerous. Just took it with me as an ornament and something to ride occasionally.

[@alienmotorbike]

I failed my Mod 2 today at this exact route in Redditch, at minute 33:03 on the left turn. A white van was parked near the turn making it extremely difficult to see any pedestrians on the road, so when I went in, I should have stopped as there were two pedestrians prepared to cross (which didn't cross, but still I should have stopped). Extremely unlucky, that has been an instant fail, and right before getting back to the test center. Until then, 0 faults. I'll try again in two weeks but for anyone: BEWARE to pedestrians, always keep your eyes on!

Great video for a beginner. One thing I'd change is at 5:50 you tell viewers to maintain the centre of the lane using counter steering. It feels highly redundant as counter steering is the only way to steer a motorcycle (well, except for turning the bike using feet while standing and riding off-road). Counter steering applies at all speeds and to both motorcycles and bicycles. I really hope that this "only counter steer at speed" myth will go to rest soon.

[@fabianmckenna8197]

Agreed...... but. Hands up anyone who has ever taught a four year old to counter steer on a bicycle.

I'm glad I found this video, I've been arguing with people online regarding how to brake... I was taught that you should release the front brake when slowing and use the rear only, to stop front end dive and potential of tipping the bike. Others have said they just stop with the front and have never heard of such a thing. Good to know I'm not going insane...

[@TheLiamis]

Rear brake only when below 10mph. That was my training from cbt and onward.

[@TheTomco11]

I always use a little bit of both, but yes mostly rear when coming to a stop. Just covering the front with a tiny bit of pressure so I can use it if my rear slips on gravel while filtering

Great , well done and thank you for your comment

[@seismic6402]

Sometimes it strikes me that the lifesaver left when indicating left at a roundabout is a bit superfluous. You are not changing lane and the attention should probably be the space to the right. I suppose it depends on the roundabout as well, but my CBT instructor said always do the lifesaver where the space is. Edit: When I did my truck licence the mirror check was always left to check for things such as bicycles or motorcyles. If you are on a motorcycle, you are going to see anything joining as you go past the previous entrance so it just strikes me the lifesaver left is taking a full half second attention away from where the danger is.

[@MotorcycleRidersHub]

Yeah that's great advice. A lifesaver is never wrong if you think you need to check. You have some good information from your trainer.

[@cosyneproject]

Yes, that's why if there's 2+ roads on roundabout, and your in left one, you'd indicate left, and check right.

I bet loads of people who aren't locals are caught out by the bus-only road at 24:13. I had to rewind the video to see why the rider was going left, because if you miss that sign it's too late. I looked it up on Street View - it's in Redditch, just south of the train station - and there's what looks like a little slip road for lorries to turn around. I wonder if it'd be a fail if you went down that road, or just a minor if you immediately turned around again.

Just found your channel in my first steps in the direct access journey.. Instant sub and like , thank you in advance for the help 👍🏼

[@MotorcycleRidersHub]

Thanks Lou, more to come soon. Keep watching and you'll see some great changes and tips

[@FarukAskar]

Wow. The riding test in the UK is legit. In the US, state of Utah at least, we just do a bunch of different maneuvers around cones in a closed off parking lot and get our license. Lol

[@itsalex3700]

Wait really? I watched exams in US and though it was incomplete video or a joke: Where is the road test? Are you seriously telling me they dont require it in US? :D

[@FarukAskar]

Exalted Me lol. I’m dead serious. There’s no road test. UK’s MOD1 is our only test.

[@itsalex3700]

@@FarukAskar Jesus, so by their standards people are pretty much eligible to drive on the road huh lol. No wonder there are so many fuckfests and accidents with motorcyclists in usa. On the other hand, less chance to screw up, unlike here where you also have to ride on the road for half an hour. so im kinda jealous that is half as easy lol.

[@FarukAskar]

Exalted Me yeah, I’m pretty sure people need to get their driver’s license before they are eligible for a motorcycle endorsement. Not sure what the reasoning is for not having an actual road test, MSF is the organization that regulates these things so if you want to learn more you can look into that.

[@NickCadmium]

Excellent video. Thank you!

[@PersianMotorcycle]

That was a very clear and great explanation, fantastic, thank you for sharing this video, it is very helpful, The rider in front is so relaxed like a pro

Passed my Mod 2 today! Thanks for making such a useful video. It definitely helped me out 😀

Great video. Takes away some of the 'unknown' and apprehension of the test.

[@adamplumtree64]

Thanks really really helped have just had my mod2 passed 😀😀😀😀😃😀

[@MotorcycleRidersHub]

Amazing, well done

[@disaffectedmale]

Passed my Direct access in 2014 aged 40. I had somewhat of a misspent youth where motorcycles are concerned and hadn't ridden since age 19. Did all of direct access on a Fazer 600 including my CBT. After one slalom through the cones on a 125 my instructor was happy that I wasn't a novice and bunged me on a 600 where I stayed until passing Mod 2. I had a total of 4 hours of training, 1 minor on mod 1 which was for being 1kmph under the threshold on the hazard avoidance even though my speedo actually said a whisker over 30, I'd been doing it faster during training but wasn't taking chances on the actual test. Mod 2 was a clean sheet. Since passing I've only had a couple of bikes. First a rather predictable ER6f 650 twin which was probably a good choice, I ran that for 3 years then bought a brand new MT09. I kept that through a short marriage, a shorter divorce and an unreasonably long knee jerk to a virus which amounted to about 6 years total and last year I chopped that in against and took delivery of a brand new MT10. Great video. Takes me back. "Left leg down, right leg up." 😇

[@philbell4284]

So you have to indicate when pulling away after stopping? Iv just done my cbt and wasn't taught that

[@MotorcycleRidersHub]

You should indicate if it will help another road user. But if there is nobody around, who are you indicating to? Ride Safe and Keep it on the Black Stuff...

[@fabianmckenna8197]

​@@MotorcycleRidersHub What about pedestrians, don't they have a right to know your intentions........

[@davidbodan4781]

Put the bike in neutral at the red light? How to run away from a driver who will not stop? Notice the car in the mirror, change feet from rear brake to gear selector. valuable seconds. Just keep in 1st gear also when parking.

[@MrAdrianOldfield]

Hi RMT, at 21:20 ish he pulled over as instructed, did it matter that he pulled into a cycle lane?

[@pilze.7213]

Lucky guy, hardly any traffic, my MOD 2 was peak lunchtime through a city, industrial estate and then onto a choka dual carriageway with a million trucks, cars, tractors, forklifts across road and vans etc. Way more easier when the traffic is calm!

[@simonrodgers6355]

Very informative take no notice of the detractors, I must have leaned at least 3 new things watching that. As far as I could see the test taker didn’t even get a minor. But it’s all new to me so perhaps you might see it differently in which case I’m willing to learn...

[@MotorcycleRidersHub]

There are keyboard warriors everywhere. They should offer me some training if they are that good, I'd gladly pay ;-)

[@Labgorilla]

Just passed my mod 2 today on second attempt. Happy to say no minors. Lots of drivers on the roads made my job quite a bit harder. Only advice that I would like to give is , ride for yourself, don’t worry about where the examiner is positioned. Imagine he or she is just a voice in your ear.

[@MotorcycleRidersHub]

Well done, brilliant news

[@robcall5182]

i got my license in 1984, my examiner, stood on the road while i rode around the block, then he jumped out from behind a tree for the emergency stop, job done... Wood Green Centre

[@sproutandkidneysoup2296]

I took mine in 1976 and it was pretty much the same, but as it was raining he spent most of the test inside the building as I rode around the block a few times. As for the emergency stop, he stuck his hand in the air when I was at least 100 yards away.

[@robcall5182]

@@sproutandkidneysoup2296 lol. It's was Dec when I did mine snow and ice everywhere. I locked up the back wheel during the emergency stop did a bit of a Wiggle, no problem. Happy days.

[@revzmartin1517]

You've aged like a fine wine, Rob

[@steve00alt70]

The instructor mainly wants you to be able to ride safely and controlled. Following signs to a destination is not as important. So dont worry if you mess up following the signs to a destination.

[@leahwarren666]

I’ve been told I have to do both shoulder checks before/ after stopping, manoeuvring etc along with a lifesaver- even pulling out of the test centre… which seems a hell of a lot- whereas this rider doesn’t seem to do that only one over shoulder every now and then and some life savers

[@dpchallenger94]

When pulling out of junctions or at roundabouts do you need to consider how the examiner can stay directly behind? What happens if you get separated?

[@MotorcycleRidersHub]

No, ride for yourself

[@fabianmckenna8197]

​@@MotorcycleRidersHub Absolutely, just ride your own ride and ignore what's behind you until he tells you to stop! Our courier company was bought over with the new owners demanding that all motorcycle couriers take a "refresher test". A twenty mile circuit of the city on A roads, B roads and motorway which was loads of fun in our local area after he told me where to go and to make progress. I knew all the traffic light sequences etc from years of experience and even filtered a few times leaving the instructor calling over the radio to stop and wait as I'd lost him.

[@ronaldbear1]

My instructor asked me to pull over to the left hand side and stop when it’s safe to do so. I did that but she went mental as I done my visuals, braked and then moved to the left. How should I have managed it? Observations, moved to the left and then braked?

[@MotorcycleRidersHub]

Yes, but you should question what you are being taught. Shouting isn't a good way to teach you.

[@robinwells8879]

I am going to try for the test but following my sons diagnosis of learning difficulties some years ago, I am utterly petrified! I now realise, at sixty, that I have just the same issues going on. I always assumed I was just a bit gormless but now I know that I have to work out left and right each time and I have difficulty retaining instructions. Sadly I don’t display any obvious overt symptoms so I sound like I am making excuses having never been formally diagnosed!😂. I could sense the instructors frustration when I did my CBT. I think I only got a pass because I agreed I probably didn’t deserve one! Wish I had done the test the first time around when it was a solo drive that if you survived then you passed!😂

[@MotorcycleRidersHub]

It's never too late to go through the process. We'd be happy helping you over this hurdle.

[@tompayne7661]

Failed my Mod 2 last week, got my retest next week, watching this video several times in-between but damn I wish I was doing my test here and not South London lol

[@marcus577]

I remember my test nearly 40 years ago High Barnet in North London. I can’t believe this couldn’t be done years ago. The examiner stood by the roadside and asked you to do a number of left and right hand turns. He move walking along the route to an area of a roundabout. It’s just reminding of the comedy sketch. Some Mother Do Have Em Moped Test.

[@ommanomnom]

watching people drive is so relaxing

[@JenniferJenkins-f9k]

Failed my mod 2 yesterday so gutted but ive rebooked it so fingers crossed i can pass it next time

[@inline4forlife]

What did you fail on and did you retake it?

[@JenniferJenkins-f9k]

​@inline4forlife I forgot my life saver when I did it I knew what I did wrong lol and the examiner said I've got it all there just be more confident so my test is booked again next Tuesday so fingers crossed

[@Lee-70ish]

Thanks very informative. Im a dreaded born again biker who like thousands never bothered to take a full test, so I'm doing it the long way round , no once around the block and watch for the clip board anymore.

[@-_-_415]

What's it like riding without having took the test? Any trouble with authoritys riding without a licence?

[@scrumpymanjack]

Really helpful video. Thanks. I noticed that the rider didn't do any left lifesavers before coming off roundabouts....I thought you had to look out for that side as well.

[@MotorcycleRidersHub]

It depends on the situation, you don't have to look like a nodding dog on test.

[@scrumpymanjack]

@@MotorcycleRidersHub I wasn’t suggesting you did. Thanks anyway.

[@MotorcycleRidersHub]

@@scrumpymanjack you just have to show awareness, the examiner can see how aware you are but some training schools teach by rote, which isn't always the best way to ride ;-)

[@LewisBeales]

I noticed he always did lifesavers when leaving the roundabout in the left lane and traffic could be overtaking on the right. Didn’t necessarily check his left side though but that seems a bit over the top anyway

[@TheRazvancristian]

Hello mate,can u tell me what i need to do to get a driver licence for this type of mopeds in Uk?i never was interested to buy one,but now i think is a good choice to go to my work
