For those watching this before they take the test, fear not. The CBT is the EASIEST test you will ever Good luck and ride safe 😀

[TheMusicTimeMachine.]

No idea why I'm watching this, I passed my bike test 19 years ago

[SycPox]

Currently 1:30AM and I have my CBT at 8:45AM it’s safe to say this video has put my nervous to rest, I feel a lot more comfortable heading into it knowing a few things, thanks for the helpful video, I really appreciate it! 😊

I’m 29 and had my first part of the CBT today. It took me a big chunk of time to get used to even getting the bike moving off without stalling. My first time ever on something with manual transmission. Eventually, we got to riding round and moving, turning to stalling every time a few hours prior. While I do need to go back and finish the rest of the day at the same pace as a group that gets to the road ride. I was assured riders in contrast to quick learners, slow learners and graspers alike. Everyone learns at their own pace.

I knew I would have got there eventually but it was very new to me. The company told me even one of their long term instructors back in the day took 3 sessions to pass their CBT.

just glad I’m not the only one who’s had issues

Don't know why I just watch this I passed my bike test in 1977 when I was 17 and you could ride a 250cc on L plates. Went straight from Suzuki GT 250 to a Kawasaki Z900 brilliant times. I'm now 60 and ride a ZZR 1100.
Think I watched it to see what my grandson had to do last week as We brought him a 125 for his birthday last month. Happy riding.

Really enjoyed doing this, huge thanks to Jim and Cam Rider for it all. Definitely recommend anyone to do their CBT!

10:04 didn't want to say "Car park" haha

[kshea]

the UK system for licensing just seems like a great way for the gov to screw you out of money multiple times.

[connoraisbitt]

You go like 5 mph in your test but when you finish your hitting 90 😂

[laurabrown]

As someone who’s taking their CBT tomorrow, this video was incredibly helpful

[wheelsrbest]

SIL passed his yesterday aged 47. I have been doing it over 50 years now but still consider I am learning. Impressed with Jim's attitude towards his pupils not condescending at all. Well done Jim😊

My god I can't wait until quarentine is over

[I_Mark_Mills]

Just did mine today. Was a lot mote relaxed than this. Had a blast, and passed thankfully. Was worried I'd have to come back another day.

Wish we'd have had more time in the yard before going onto the road. I learned how to operate the clutch on the road, mostly. Had a few scary moments. I let the clutch slip at one point and ended up in somebody's front garden. Messed up pulling off on a roundabout too. Thankfully I managed to get my speed up in time.

Kept accidentally pressing the horn when using my indicators too, lol. They're really close together on the CB125F

[benbenbenification]

Best thing I ever done was my cbt, always recommending people to do it and feel what it's like to ride, 2 and a half years on and now I'm 4 weeks away from my mod2 and getting onto a bigger bike, keep up the great videos

[stewartnorton]

I did my CBT back in May. You perfectly summed up what the road ride is like... undescribable ! Going 60 round long bendy country lanes was amazing I was grinning like a self abusing monkey the whole time...never had a feeling like it. I would say to anyone do your CBT ! Even if you don't see yourself as a bike owner at the moment just do it it's a great and unforgettable day...and I almost guarantee you will be on Gumtree or Bike trader within a hour of getting home looking for bikes 😊

[Little_Sprite]

I'm saving up for my first bike so im doing my CBT next year and I found this really interesting to watch! So excited to do it and so grateful for videos like this that will help me learn as much info as possible before I start

[evildeeds]

[jakecrabbSU]

[akbarhussain]
