SSDC - Anyone Taking 2B There?

[timewalker84]

wah, considered fast, i took 3-4 lessons per prac last time, take till pek cek.

 

I think all the practice I had riding during my four lesson 2s played a part

 

26 already claim midlife crisis... then what about me ....

 

Heh bro, midlife crisis hits diff pple at diff times. You've had a better life than me, that's why you never hit midlife crisis until much later

 

Some fast learner got tuition outside ma.. thats why go prac that time damn zai lol..

 

=X

 

I saw before one condo carpark got chalk drawing marks of plank and pylons woh! Somemore draw until very zhun

[nabil15]

just want ask if any taking class 2a at ssdc now?

 

am enrolling in 2 days (:

 

can perhaps go together lesson 1

[timewalker84]

hello fellow 'old' man...i am older than you...hehe. Well, better mistake during learning than out on the roads.

 

I noe now Today I actually skidded around a corner during circuit revision just before Lesson 4 assessment. (Maybe I just exposed my identity, if the instructors who helped me up are in this forum reading. I was the kokster who kena trapped under the bike because foot kena caught in between the wheel and exhaust.)

 

Got some cuts, bruises, a slightly sprained foot and a painful lesson on why I need to change down to gear 2 when taking corners, especially when there's rain

 

Also learnt the importance of wearing safety gear. Leather gloves all torn up, and knee guard heavily scratched. I can only imagine the injuries if I didn't wear the proper gear

saw someone asking info counter today about some probational license, wearing white?

 

any of you? haha

One and the same

 

And yes, I am having lots of fun during lessons!

Before TP need to go how many time Revision ??

[hecter85]

Some really useful advice by instructor Riderwoon here. Closed throttle only halfway, and actually managed to last 10 secs on the plank.

 

Very luckily passed Lesson 4 today on 1st attempt with seven other guys. Having lots of circuit training really pays off. No longer afraid of plank le.

 

But now stuck for 1 month waiting for RTT

 

Same as you.. now waiting for RTT on the 23rd June..

One day before me Mine is on 24th June.

Can't believe I'm going to retake it for the 3rd time this coming Saturday. ):

 

Mistakes from First Session:

- poor down-gear shifting

- abrupt lane change

 

Mistakes from Second Session:

- abrupt lane change

- wobble during u-turn

- epic fail in safety check

 

if there's any tip / advise for me to improve, please share. (:

If you have no mistakes during practice, u will most likely pass. so practice until you are good.

Managed to pass 3.2 some time ago at SSDC, going for lesson 4 soon, though havent book any dates. Good luck everyone!

Lesson 4's an assessment round. You need to score 18 points or below to pass IIRC. The assessment is made to simulate actual test conditions, so you have only one chance to pass the lesson.

 

Some tips for Lesson 4:

 

1) Know the route like the back of your hand.

 

2) Perform all your left right checks, back checks and blind spot checks correctly and try to make sure the instructors see you checking.

 

3) Go for one circuit revision slot in the session just before your Lesson 4. It helps boost your confidence.

 

4) Try to book a non-prime slot! Fewer cars on the circuit to cause you trouble when you exit the figure 8 or the crank course

 

Some guys take 4 lessons or more to pass lesson 4. Some are lucky and pass it 1st time round. Good luck bro, all the best

To my earlier post, lesson 5. But luckily I passed today. (:

Now, lesson 6 tomorrow. Hopefully, I will get through on the first try. I want to go for my TP test on 01/07/2010.

 

I really want to end this license journey fast. :x

And probably get Class 3 after obtaining 2b.

Parking of bikes would be on the first floor. Near the security post.

 

Multi-storey. Level1, Level 3, Level 5. There's no level 2 or level 4 for practical.

Fifth level is where all the bikes are placed. Class 2B - Class 2A - Class 2.

Lesson 1 and Lesson 2 for class 2B are conducted at level 5. Same goes for cars.

 

Level 3 are used mostly for figure 8 and crank course. Not sure about cars.

 

Level 1 is where circuit test route and circuit revision are held. (:

 

Hope it gives you a better idea how the place is like.

Woah !! Thanks for the great info... dun want to get loss there hahaha

Before TP need to go how many time Revision ??

 

To do the revision is to practice for the day when U start to ride on the public road. Traffic Police test is secondary, your own safety "MOST IMPORTANT":dot:

[timewalker84]

Was doing circuit revision today, and a huge group of lesson 4 takers showed up (about 20 over?).

 

Today looked like a damn suey day for many lesson 4 takers. IIRC, about 60% failed the assessment.

 

Maybe the instructors can share some tips on some common mistakes the lesson 4 takers make on the circuit? A while back I only narrowly passed lesson 4 with 18 points, and this is very scary, considering I haven't even hit the road yet!

HEY! We are on the same boat. I passed on my 2nd attempt with 18points. :x

I think safety check is the problem. I dare say we new riders are pretty complacent since the hazards on circuit is not on par when coming to on road.

 

And I took my lesson 5 three times due to my inability to practice safety check, lane changing and u-turning. ):

[timewalker84]

Need some help here from experienced riders. I have some problems in the circuit which I need advice on.

 

1) When I stop on the class 2B slope, I check inwards, signal right and move off. Am I missing out any blindspot or backcheck?

 

2) When I turn right off the class 2B slope stop line, what are the checks I have to do, and in which order? Is this correct?

 

a) Left right check

b) Check inwards

c) Backcheck (or Blind spot check?), move off.

 

 

3) When I turn into the plank+slalom area, eBrake area or admin area, should I signal right since I am effectively going off the main circuit?

 

4)Signalling in the figure 8 and crank course When should I cancel the left signal in the figure 8 and when should I switch it back on?

 

When entering the crank course, I have to signal left, but when exiting the crank course, I have to turn right. When is a good time to cancel left signal and switch on right signal?

 

Also, is it important to do blind spot check when exiting figure 8 and crank course? It's alot to do in a very short time (esp crank course), since I must signal right, do left right check and blindspot check all within the 1m exit of the crank course.

 

5) When there is traffic at the exit of the crank course, I sometimes have trouble shifting down to gear 1 in time. Any suggestions?

Congrats on passing lesson 5!

 

For many of use, there's usually always one or two modules which we have to retake many times to pass! For me, it was lesson 2 (4 Times cos of plank!!!).

 

It's never a loss to do more lessons though. Esp lesson 5, since your 2 extra sessions are effectively also serving as road revisions!

 

Yeah. I have a huge problem with correctly doing safety checks. That's why I just created one mega post above this one asking for help Hopefully some zai kia will come in and answer some or all of the questions

Were you in today's 1.05pm slot?

[timewalker84]

Were you in today's 1.05pm slot?

 

Nope. The 3.20 slot You're doing 2A yeah? How's the feel of the Super 4?
