After passing Mod 1

HiI have a CBR 900RR but have not yet passed my test.I know I've done this the wrong way round but had the money, saw it and bought it..I was wondering, if I passed my Mod 1 could I restrict the bike and ride it til I decide (and get the funds ) to go for my Mod 2? Thanks

Wind Wipeout

Hi everyone, first post so here we go.I recently purchased a WK125 sport.

Luckily I was fully kitted out and the bike landed in a bush. The wind speed at the time was between 19 - 25mph (after checking on the met ...

Cornering - thought process

hi guys,I have no riding experience apart from my CBT, 1 x lesson and my mod1 and mod2 tests.

Bandit gear changes

I've got a 2008 gsf650 bandit with only 16k on the clock. Just looking for some advice with regard to gear changes. When changing from 1st to 2nd and to a lesser extent 2nd to 3rd there is good clunk as the gear engages. If I do a WOT take off the clunk is far worse.  Is this just the style of gearbox or is there a better way to change gears. Only been riding for 6 months so it may just be me.
