    I done my test in Belfast. Really happy I got it first time.
    Have you any hints pointers??

    I would say try not to be nervous remember all your signals, mirrors and life savers you cant do enough. I thought I was over doing it and he said I was missing a few at the start. Just ride like you normally do and if you think you have messed up put it to the back of your mind and keep going sometimes if they see you recovering well it can work in your favor. Good luck.

    was it a UK bike test or an Irish bike test???

    It was a UK test. But get this we have a different system to England. In England you have to do a CBT test to get on the road then there is other tests. All we have is turn 17 you can ride a 125 with no prior training. Pass a theory test then you can take the practical and get any bike you want. Legally the bike has to be restricted to 33bhp but many people remove these. If you do remove them you are not insured and not legal on the road.

    Apparently the test in the North is changing to incorporate some kind of CBT training. Manouvers around coned areas etc. I think N.I. test is to easy but I would say that now I have passed. :D

    Not sure how this compares with the Irish test? Is it similar or easier?
