Good man

I'd get this dude for practicing theory, I got it and passed 1st time

DSA Theory Test for Motorcyclists Download, think you download and buy direct from dvlas website, have a look on the net dude

Theorys easy though, most of it is just common sense and its multiple choice as you know but deffo do some practicing before, I never really bothered looking into the highway code, just used that. would send it to ya but its made to be used on only 1 computer, you probably could find a 3 copy on the net though ;)

Reef · Guru

I practiced from the computer

Nathlaad · DTR Legend

Type motorcycle theory in app store, should pop up mate

Jace · DTR Respected Member

Jace · DTR Respected Member

People i did cbt with were £520 for a das but there in banbury or southam rebel dogg training

tripr · Guru

that dvla ones online is good just like being there ,, did my lot for about £400 including the price of the cbt two years before £125 , £30 x2 theory tests, £45 1 mod1 lesson , £15 mod1 £45+pre mod1 lesson basically taking you to the test center. £45 on a mod2 lesson then £90 test+ pre test lesson . done

I failed my mod 2 first time but in hindsight the instructors were not good riders they couldn't even wheelie [joke] anyway I decided on my 2nd try which was about 6 months later to have no lessons and just ride like I normally do and sailed through it one minor, thinking about it I shouldn't have bothered with any lessons because I found the instructors were just over explaining everything and unless your a complete newbie and just ride sensible you will pass mod 2 without lessons theres enough on youtube to tell you what the test involves, its basically a little ride with a guy telling you were to go, he will tell you to head for a destination for about 15 mins then for the rest of the time it will be pulling up behind parked cars pulling away and a few roundabouts and then head off back to the centre.

ahh good point mate yeah that was using my bike add an extra £20 per lesson for using there bikes

GADGET · Guru

as long as you get your bike up to test standards (not mot standards) then i dont see the point in paying to do your test at a disadvantage ,if you get in someones car that youve never driven before it takes a while to get used to it ,all of your riding practice was done on your bikes , i went for my das years ago and couldnt take the test coz the tax disc had fallen off of THEIR bike disbelief furious and it was so poorly maintained it was a death trap and for the whole three day jobby it crashed it down , doesnt install confidence when a so called noobie in their eyes wink can tell both tyres are well under pressure and are weaving in the corners , I HATE 4 STROKES furious furious furious furious furious ....unless above about 550cc

Nathlaad · DTR Legend

good save Gadge "above 50cc" ;)

ezegreenfingers · Guru

Gona have to rent there bike can't do it on the dt any way all booked just got to c if I can get a cancelation can't wait this long

Calum122 · Guru

ezegreenfingers · Guru

Mate thats what i was like at the time when he gave me a minor for doing it all the way through the test, he wasn't none of it when I explained that but least he didn't choose to be a dick and fail me for it, I know you gotta do it normally just be wary on your test is all I'm saying

Calum122 · Guru

NEVER! Lol. Nice one in the end though mate. I haven't got a speedo on my bike so can't book mod 2 until i have one lmao!

ezegreenfingers · Guru

What bike u using if u mind me asking

Calum122 · Guru

Right. I know it sucks. So zip it lmao! But i'm only twenty. And money is tight. So i'm just doing it on my dt :( the reason being is that if i want to do my big bike license firstly i need to be 24. Secondly i need to spend like £600. Or i could spend £600 now hiring and using a 400. Then in two years time spend another £600 doing it on a 600.

So i thought feck it. For £15.50 i'm just going to do it on my DT. Then do the big bike as soon as i'm 24. Bonus here in my opinion is that i won't need to keep doing my cbt. I won't need to keep doing the theory. And i won't get in trouble for having pillions/ no L plates and cheaper insurance :)

But yeah. My dt :(

So i'm only getting the A1 license. I know it sucks but money is tight and i can't be arsed to keep doing the practicle test lmao!

BigPhil · DTR Senior Member

iv just done mine on me dt only 18 so cant do a2 anyway, passed mod 1 before the law change then failed mod 2 and couldnt re book before the law change :(

Calum122 · Guru

Thats a greener. I never gave it any thought. Really! I just woke up one day this year and was like. Feck it. I'm going to do my bike license. My cbt expired years ago which is why i didn't bother. But redone that and thought i want to be 100% legit

Been riding four years. But can someone fill me in on what to expect for mod 2?

Luke · Guru

MOD 2 is pretty much riding on the road and following signs. Use shoulder checks a lot and don't do anything dangerous and should pass it first time.
