CBT, Direct Access and my first 'big' motorbike
My biker chick motorcycle journey: Starting with my bike CBT (compulsory basic training), through to my Direct Access Course (DAS), passing my motorcycle test (Mod 1 and Mod 2) and getting my full unrestricted UK motorcycle licence. After which, I bought my first big motorcycle, a Suzuki SV650cc, and my first and second bike rides out on the road.

Loving your energy and enthusiasm. I’ve just done my CBT at 56 and I’m just studying for my theory…I have a 125 but am so looking forward to getting a bigger bike for a proper ride

I've just passed my CBT 2 weeks ago and got a brand new cb125f but I must have looked at every single bike on AutoTrader eyeing up my next big bike, can't wait.

I started on a 500cc, went up to a 600cc, then a 1000cc. Then I found I wasn’t getting out enough, so sold it. Two years later I just needed a bike as I was missing it, so I bought a Grom just for fun. And it certainly was fun. But uncomfortable. So now I’m on a 300cc. And it’s perfect. I just feel I don’t need anything bigger anymore. Mind you, it took me 20 years to realise this.

It's great to see someone who is so enthusiastic about biking. So many bikers are around my age, 62, it's so difficult to get into bikes now. I bought a new Honda SS50 on my 16th birthday, the salesman showed me the controls and I had to ride 10 miles home! No CBT in 1976! I got a CB250G5 in 1977, passed my test 2 weeks later, taught myself to ride, and I'm still loving biking!

I'm a pensioner with 50 years on the road under my belt ,my sister had a little honda moped back in the 1970s then in the 80s some little runabout then she took up biking seriously about a dozen years ago. A few years back I had the opportunity to ride with her in NZ where she lives she told me she learned stuff just watching me , I will need to watch her now, she's Amazing on 2 wheels on road track or gravel. The point is blokes fussing around learning ladies can be big time hold ups to their own self teaching. Only thing I have to tell anyone is check out California super bike school!

Its a great feeling owning a Bike which brings its own freedom. I must admit I have one rule when I purchase a bike if you cant pick it up you can not have it . If you drop it whilst out on your own at least you know you can get it back up and on its side stand.

It's great to see more ladies getting into the biking scene. You should come to the North of ireland and ride up the Antrim coast road in the spring / summer if the north west 200 is on. Health to ride, keep the video's coming, ádh mór!

Brilliant channel, so refreshing getting a female perspective. I have a Benelli 125, cbt behind me and taking my test in a years time. ( and already checking out a few big bikes, must say, all of them adventure bikes) I never considered a Suzuki SV650, but the seat height is exactly the same as my Benelli which is perfect! I get both feet nearly flat on the ground. And the lightweight frame is a dream. My husband and I got our bikes at the same time, but yes, I still get the "instructor treatment"! We are looking forward to loads of road trips once we have passed mod1 and mod2. We are both 60!

Not been watching you long so just looking back at this older stuff. Yep that bike was the best thing you could have started bigger bikes with. I've been riding since God was a lad and had them all. Sports bikes are great for track days and short ride outs and of course posing if that's your thing. I had a 2017 R1M for track days and you can't beat it for that ( and the posing photos) but it was the pitts on the road!!!. Much nicer to ride my old R1200RT on the streets which I still have (my forever bike). Love your adventures can't wait to see what you are going to get up to next.

When you do your test, do they do stuff in an enclosed area before going out (not the cbt test, A1 A2 or A)

Test is two parts. Module 1 in an enclosed area. Module 2 straight out on the road from their car park. Usually taken on different days, though not always. And not necessarily at the same test centre.

Subbed! Wish you'd been around 3 years ago when my partner did her DA. She took every mistake along the way SUPER hard, I think watching this would have really helped her chill out a bit and not take everything so hard. (y) She also ended up on an SV (mainly because it was my old one and already at home). I really don't think she'd have any other bike now though. Loves it!
@SaffySprocket
@SaffySprocket 4 года назад
Theres a lot of pressure on women to be perfect at all times, so I think it's extremely difficult to take this pressure into exam conditions! We really need to start encouraging women to learn that resilience is more important than perfection! Glad to hear she got an SV in the end, I absolutely love mine now!

Don't buy a sports bike. They are for taking around the track only and no fun on the road: The sitting position is super uncomfortable, you can't travel on it for longer than 45 minutes without putting your foot down and when you do, it feels like your bones have been welded together at the joints. Also it is no fun lying on the tank whilst speeding, concentrating on bends etc. and seeing / appreciating nothing out in the wonderful nature. Their stiff suspension is no fun on pothole ridden roads. They have shorter service intervals, drink petrol and cost more in general as well as having a shorter life expectancy. The SV is a great bike. Keep it.

In terms of your DAS - I'd just say don't focus on perfection and enjoy the journey :) I've seen a lot of people telling themselves they will pass first time round and get pretty devastated - but it's not like school where you get either get an A* or you suck, the rules are there to keep you alive :D In terms of your CBT, total opposite - if you don't pass the first time round - I'd find a new school and wouldn't return to the first school! Loads of dodgy schools out there that deliberately fail people they think will and can afford to pay again :) CBT is training so if you don't 'pass' I'd look at the trainer who taught you - also avoid showing up in a nice car / nice clothes or give any indication you have money hahahah Which city are you paralegal-ling in?

When you take the CBT do they provide the motorbike? and if you have no experience do they teach you EVERYTHING???? Like how to initially drive it and such?

Hey I just found your channel. I love your content & that your a sexy biker chick 😉 I watch username Kates channel too! Your both equally awesome & I also did my bike lessons & test on a Suzuki Gladius sv650 & bought the same bike from the motorcycle schools shop second hand 2016 plate for £1,700 it came with the engine protection bars & a tank cover to strap a back pack onto it + it makes the bike feel/look abit beefier 👍

one question , as you failed 3 times did you have to pay for each of the direct access test if so ouch that's costly. well done passing tho
@SaffySprocket
@SaffySprocket 2 года назад
ahaha yeh worth every penny :-) I've never tested well in exams because I suffer from major exam anxiety. Even in Law School, I'd do really well in assignments so as soon as something turns into test conditions, my brain goes ARGH FREAK OUT

@@SaffySprocket Oh mines robust. Unlike my partner he managed to bruise himself and he moaned for weeks! He's now scared of my bike and claims it's the devil! But thank you for being so full of energy in your videos! I really want to create my own content and when I daydream about it I imagine myself being as full of energy as you are. My only drawback is anxiety and self esteem. So I'm hoping, now that I've seen someone else as excited as me that I can build up enough confidence to do it myself. Thanks a lot for being an inspiration!

@@nyleen You're a better woman than I am. If that had been my fella, woulda given him a lot more to complaint about hahaha, in relation content creation, the good thing about RU-vid is, when you film, you can take as many takes as you like! Sometimes I film a shot and I dont think it quite has the right feeling to it, or sometimes I'm about to say something and it just comes out my mouth as FFFFSPGKCDJB. Try making videos for yourself first, just film some things that you never intend to share online, just for the sake of getting use to talking in front of camera. Doesnt have to be ahiut motorbikes, just about anything, you can even immediately delete the footage straight after but it will still help your confidence and energy go up when you do come to make content you wanna share!

I love your videos but I have to ask you a question. You do loads of touring miles on an unfaired bike. I guess that's what you are used to, but have you tried a bike with a fairing? Respect for sticking with it, especially in the UK, with all the oppressive legislation and crap weather!
