Direct Access, DAS Module 1 lesson at the test centre (right circuit mainly).

Direct Access Module 1 lesson at the Nottingham test centre on an A2 CB500F. The procedures are exactly the same for the unrestricted A Module 1. This was the second half of the lesson, with the first student already having completed their practice.
Time stamps for the exercises:
00:00 Manual Handling
02:20 Slalom & Figure of 8
06:30 Slow ride
06:58 U-Turn
07:56 Controlled stop
08:53 U-Turn (again, there is only one on the day)
09:20 Emergency stop
12:03 U-Turn (again)
13:36 Emergency stop
14:03 U-Turn (again)
14:34 Avoidance (right circuit)
17:19 Avoidance (left circuit)
It makes no difference which circuit you ride on the day: the examiner will either put the speed trap out on the left OR the right, so you will only ride one circuit on the day. You won't know which one though until you turn up on the day! We do practice the avoidance in both directions.
Thanks for taking the time to watch. please comment, like, subscribe and share.
See you soon.

    Excellent example, this is exactly what KZread needs you're a breath of fresh air for new riders. I actually learnt a lot from Russ's videos back in 2012 when I passed my test. My wife is now learning to ride and we shall use your content to advantage, because as good as Russ videos are, they're a bit dated now lol. Still useful though, but it's great to see new up to date content, thanks for taking the effort to upload and film these, I'm sure you'll help many people get through and grow this community. Good job 👏

    Hmmm, it is expensive to ride a motorcycle, however the safety requirements of passing the test will be key to keeping it upright. I believe the driving test is quite rigorous these days, though I'm not a car instructor. It cost me the same to learn to ride in 2011 as it costs our students now, so comparatively I think it's a good deal given inflation should have had far more of an impact than it has on motorcycle training costs.

    Hello, we often recommend students buy a 125 at the start of their learning journey. It is an investment towards your big bike, so long as you look after it, and usually can be sold for not much less than you bought it for. So it's effectively very cheap bike hire which allows you to practise what you're being taught, and makes the learning journey easier. Students who have their own bikes do find it easier so long as they make the time to practise, rather than just ride (there's a difference!). Hope this helps 😊

    Hi Dean, yes weekends only. It's great to be able to take students to practice at the test centre itself. It certainly helps with familiarity with the cone layout and procedures for the exercises. This tends to help with test day nerves too.

    i almost failed mine because I forgot on the swerve that you had to stop between the cones i was so focused on just getting around the cone i was slowing down got to about 15 id say no where near the cones and off to the right i had to accelerate and get back inline with them when i realised oh im meant to be there aint i hahaha. I also found it helpful to ask what my speed was on the control stop so i could get an idea if i needed a touch more to get the 30 or nailed it and just to get that same feeling.

    Oops yes, part of the avoidance is getting back onto the original line, as if moving to the other side of the road and back again to avoid the hazard. Well done for realising just in time 😬😂

( not sure why i had to do it or why he didn't let me finish the figure 8's first) Left me at an awkward angle and I put a foot down coming round so it was over. Other 1 was clipping the cone on the swerve then the other 2 were the slalom.

    Depends what bike you are using as to whether it is an actual grab rail or as in the case of ours a crash bar which is too low down on the bike to use comfortably without leaning the bike over too far. If it's an actual grab rail then yes by all means use it. Our bikes don't have them.

    Just failed my 5th MOD1 test.. Very bad nerves, but I got better and better. Today I nailed it, but failed it! Did whole rest perfectly. Then: Drove out of fenced test area. Parked bike. Turned off engine. Put stand down. Realised as I tilted bike onto stand that it was not fully down. On my own I rescued it, putting bike vertical and then putting stand fully down. The bike was never at a risky angle: I would not have been strong enough to lift a bike that was leaning much. I was failed for that: Your serious faults Use of stand Seems a bit unfair to me!

    I looked at the gov.uk website. It says: Module 1 off-road test: what happens You’ll take the module 1 test in an off-road motorcycle manoeuvring area. The test normally takes about 20 minutes and includes: wheeling the moped or motorcycle and using the stand riding a slalom and figure of 8 a slow ride a U-turn cornering and a controlled stop cornering and an emergency stop cornering and hazard avoidance There is a clear diagram of the MMA, and this shows a rectangular area with a "Start" position. My stand error occurred outside the MMA, so was it reasonable to fail me? I had of course already demonstrated that I could use the stand properly in the first part of the actual test. Humph!

    Annoying as it may seem, the test does not finish until you are safely off the bike, having had it fully in control at all times whilst on it. Sadly you were not fully in control, having nearly dropped it. It doesn't matter that it didn't drop, the almost drop highlights a loss of control. Take it in your stride (again) and you'll pass next time 😊

    Yes, looking back at it the lifesaver is clear, however the point here is that quite often students don't differentiate between their lifesaver to turn and their look to turn (looking where they want to land), so this is a reminder to everyone to make it obvious. By the way, our students don't dread the test precisely because we take them to the test centre for this practise session. This particular student was especially laid back and passed with 0 faults. Thanks for your constructive comments 😊

    Hi there, thanks for the comment. Practise leads to consistency. If you only do 1 or 2 it doesn't mean you will always be able to do 1 or 2 without making errors. Practise is required to build the machine control and balance skills. If more than one or two leads to mistakes it is arguable the skill has not been suitably practised to gain consistency. Thanks again.
