haha yeap yeap...i'll remember that, esp after i get my 2b licence...cuz no instructor to protect you...

 

oh btw, i heard road lessons are more ex?

Try to speed up more on the rd. Cos too slow very dangerous one. Jia you. more expensive by 10 bucks i think.

if you'd ridden bike for 10 years but ride bicycle recently, you'll feel that bicycle dam wierd also... the issue is how used are you to the machine ba. =)

 

just get more practise then surely wont forget one. and remember to be more kiasee then you will be able to remember not to change lane abruptly. =)

 

wobble lei... can't help it. get use to clutching in and out fast. that depends on practise...

 

cancel signal... er... memory work vs. being gan jiong =)

 

incorrect posture : usually they catch incorrect posture more at individual stations. on the move less emphasis. like at S-course, if you open your leg wide wide, then it becomes dam obvious... got it?

 

hope this helps.

anyway i took v long to clear 5.02 cuz i stopped for exams then came back all rusty...if i din drop off the plank on my first attempt i would have cleared long long ago n maybe waiting for tp now sia...

 

oh but then again i heard 8.01 is even harder to pass...

 

haha oh well, i've got time now...hope to get my licence soon!

 

jiayou too dOnGhAi!

[xishuo]

np man... good luck to both of you ^_^...

 

pple always says its harder... seldom pple say it gets easier...

hmmm actually currently my bf has two bikes under his name, one's a 200cc phantom n the other's a honda kup 125...will be using the kup since i personally think the phantom's too heavy for me i guess...

 

on the other hand i've tried out the kup and i tink it's a bit underpowered for my liking...considered getting a nsr sp but if i put the box at the back for my books n stuff then abit weird...somemore sp uses 2T...

 

i kinda like the gmax150 but apparently scooters are higher maintenance cuz of the belt + relatively more ex...

 

there you go, my dilemma...

 

anyone got advice if i should change away from e kup? student nia, dun wan spend too much on bike either...haha...

[dOnGhAi]

woah! another wanna buy nsr sp one.

no need put box la... just go for sp, put all books in a bag lor... have seen alot of ppl do that. even my campmate does that, he's riding sp too.

btw, got such thing as best times to take road lessons anot? i noticed only got one morning (9.50am) one afternoon (1.55pm) and two nite slots (last two sessions) available for road everytime...my guess is that its cuz there are lesser vehicles OTR at tt time ba...

 

should i chiong lessons? cuz usually my fren and i take our lessons together but she's away instructoring an outdoor camp n wun be back till thurs nite...earliest lesson will be sat le...

 

on one hand i wan faster get licence, on the other hand i prefer to take wif frens...haiz...

 

 

i'm so indecisive huh?

I got 16 points again for 5.02 yesterday. But very disappointed this time coz I got most of my points due to failing to do safety check. I knew I didn't check one blind spot but thought it didn't really matter but that was the stupid mistake that made me failed.
