Truth be known they known a " Honda Wet dreams" around our way  ;D ;D  .....

Likewise, but more associated with the later Super Dream.  :y
I once saw a 400 Dream in a bike shop with an autobox - I believe it was along the lines of the DAF Variomatic rubber band drive.  :-/


AFAIR 2 speed manual with torque converter

Only ever saw one

That one was the only one I ever saw.

Always lots of Plastic Maggots about though! ;)

failed mine on U turn too, but test has changed again, I was one of the last to get through on the old system.

Its now split, you do a test off road in a car park. U turns, S bends and such, which have to be done at 30mph even in wet. Quite a few compaints about that, lot of people fallen off  :o

Emergency stop ect all done off road, you then do the on-road bit afterwards.

DAS course, which is straight to the big bike test (over 500cc) will cost around £500 :(
Straight to the big bike test?

You have the CBT, the bike training. That will allow you up to 125cc with L plates.

But for the test, to ride any power motorbike now, you need to take your test on a 500cc+ (usually a 500cc or 600cc)

Its called the DAS "Direct Access" - These causes often include CBT, so you do that on the Monday, then migrate to big bikes Tuesday, taking your test on the Friday  :y

You can't do lessons, you have to do a (normally) week long course  :)
Ok mate, i knew that, already got a lapsed CBT on a GS 125 but what about the theory/haz perception test? That has to be fitted into said week?

Guy, does that mean your provisional is out too? If I remember right, if your provisional expires you have to wait two years before you can re-apply for it? Dont want to scupper your dreams but its worth checking
