just booked my theory bike test today.

Whats the main difference between bike theory and car theory? Questions etc. Just so i can prep. Cheers

 

I think there are 50 questions on a bike theory test instead of 35 for the car, all the same type of questions, but dont hold me to it

50 questions now mate i think. I did a theory for wagon back in jan.
Cheers timbo you lovely piece of sugar pie

 

Just make sure you get the theory book and go through the whole lot and youll be fine! Its the hazard perception where many people slip up. It sounds daft but you can actually be 'too' aware like i was on the practice runs. I actually clicked as soon as i saw the hazard and it didnt register, so i found that if you double click the moment you see it, you get the full marks. Some of them are pretty tricky though so you definatly need to do a few practice runs to familiarise yourself with how it actually works.

 

i found my bike test easier than car as there was no-one sat next to you and i could relax more, but hasnt the test got harder recently ?

 

Practical test gets harder on 29th September.

 

Wouldnt surprise me, i want to learn to ride a bike, but my parents say stick with 4 wheels its safer, true but i love the thrill of speed lol

 

Same here, and the fact that most already have a good few years of road sense behind them so that comes naturally. Its just postioning and awareness thats different in many ways.

By the way, it was raining for my test so the examiner followed me in his merc because he probably didnt want to get wet. Most of the time, he was a couple of cars behind me.

 

thanks for the info, hope to get mine done before 29th september

 

I pissed the theory but only just scraped the hazard perception!

 

passed both practise tests

 

Nice one Andy, What bike you after?

 

Id say youd be lucky to get a test before the end of september now mate. I know all places near me are fully booked up and have been for weeks now as i know someone who wanted one.

 

iv got mine in 10 days cant wait

its a pice of piss realy

 

Andy , you'll piss it!

Ive had my licence 12 years and still no bike!!!

I used this to practise for my theory last month. passed.

 

They didnt do theory then though did they? Old man?

 

if you drive a car and are not totally fucking useless you should piss it.

i didnt practice it or anything as im lazy, but done pretty well in the theory and fairly well in the hazard perception test. basically if something is moving, click the thingy!

i passed ok lol, so it cant be THAT hard

 

cheers for the info chaps

 

i passed my bike test 5 years ago now went out and bought all the stuff to go with it leathers,boots,lid,gloves all good stuff spent a few pounds in the shop but had not bought a bike yet lol.I then got he chance of a very minted honda fireblade rrw which i bought and was my first proper bike i had.i had it on the road a good few summers and i do have to say that gettin on a bike and going for a blast around the country is a lot more intence and have to watch out for what all the car drivers are doing first.still got my blade but dont get out on it no more(which i do miss) but the car eats all my money now so the blade has to go!!the only thing i would ay about doing your test ajc is keep your head movein ,blind spot and checking your mirrors and relax if you can ride a bike you should do fine i just thought it was like going round with my instructor worked for me anyway good luck hope you pass!if you fancy a nice minted blade am sellin 1 lol

 

Passed my DAS last november, theory is easy, just more related to bikes, mainly common sense, the module one is the hardest I found as there was loads of people watching me so made me nervous!

 

who the bloody hell keeps dragging these old post up lol

 

dont bother with the book once u have done about 10 pages u will wont to bin it lol. Get the disc for your computer once u have done it about 30 or so times u will see a lot of the question tend to repeat them selfs just worded a bit different! I got 100% on the questions part and a bit less on the hazard perception bit
