You need to stop with the front wheel in a box after the speed trap...probably going too quick to stop accurately in the wet.  Mine was in the wet and I was bricking it, especially on the swerve..had to have 2 goes at each! 


Good luck for next time, you'll get it soon.  My mate's on his 5th attempt at Mod2, he's had a CB1300 waiting in his parents' garage for the last 18 months!!

Back in the day I just went round the block and the bloke was on foot and one emergency stop in front of him--- test done and passed.
I wonder if I would pass today ?
I don't do rain or threat there of. dry rider only with no shame.

There isn't an upper limit on the speed, just the 30 mph minimum. To be fair I did come through it at 45mph and he didn't put his hand up until I was out of the cones so my emergency stop looked a bit long especially as it was wet. If the examiner hadn't had an examiner watching him then I reckon he would have passed me.
  Where we did the mod 1 training was all lumpy tarmac, clods of mud and blowing straw so speeds were moderate and was coming through the trap at about 32-35. In the cage it was lovely smooth racetrack grade tarmac........... oh well next time is the charm.

Mod 1 passed  Big Grin  Was a bit more careful with the speed this time. Just got to wait for a Mod2 date now.

Congrats and good luck with the Mod 2 - in my opinion, the Mod 1 is harder Smile

In case anyone missed it in "General" I passed my mod2 today with a massive zero minors. Been out for a bit of a (careful) play to scrub the tyres in. Guess who's a happy bunny  Big Grin Big Grin Big Grin
