Wondering if anyone has ever gone down the A2 route rather than DAS

At the moment because of work and family I am struggling to organise or book my mod 1 with a training company.

Looking into it my CBF125 is a Standard A2 bike so if I did the mod1/2 on that I would need to be on 33hp bikes for 2 years but it would mean I can book everything myself.

Just wondering if anyone has tried this route, I ride everyday so am pretty comfortable on a bike and doing it on my own seems to make sense

Comments please
 
Its the timing, if I do it myself I can book it when I can get to do it, if I go DAS I need time off to do the DAS and then time off for the tests
 
Your right, just called the local bike place and they can squeeze me in on the 19th for 3 days training with test on the 4 day.

Costing me a pretty penny but "if" I pass its all done and dusted

Nervous now even though I have put 3000 miles on my 125 :eek:
 
Costing about 690 its Mon to wed with both tests on Thursday. He did say after the two days if he thinks I'm ok I don't need the Wednesday it will cost me less.

I did my theory awhile back just to get it out the way
 
I'm hoping I will be ok as I ride my bike everyday to work and its a 45min trip in all weathers.

Just need to get back into all the good habits which I am doing so every trip.

Only thing that is worrying me is the weight of the test bike. I'm only a skinny 11st. I can throw my 125 about easy, just worried the bigger bike will be a new learning curve.

Oh and on the R1 comment, my work mate just got one and man they are nice but to be honest the bike to me is my everyday transport so its function over speed for me :)

Well just paid my deposit for all ready for the 19th Novembers

Time frame is
Monday 09:00 - 16:30
Tuesday 09:00 - 16:30
Wednesday 09:00 - 16:30
Thursday MOD 1 10:10 MOD 2 13:29 (As long as I pass MOD 1)

He did say that if I do fail MOD2 I can rebook straight away and just go out for a long rider before the test. Mentioned most failures are silly mistakes rather than riding skill.
