good luck for the Mod2, its mad that you cant do it now, not like you are in a tin can with someone else, you are totally independent!
Not hard to wipe down the headset between tests either.If you are confident on the 125, do regular lifesavers and turn your indicators off, you'll be fine on the big bike test.

Called Bikesure yesterday and got my insurance brokered for the DR350SE, and taxed it too. Aegis or whoever it is gives me 60 days to pass my full license, but most importantly it’s 90 days euro travel cover among other things. As far as the Mod2, the DVSA assures me it will happen by the 22nd July, though I don’t hold my breath.
Had a good chat with my instructor, and he’s waiting on his business insurance to get that all sorted so we can get back on the road.
Mechanics had a look over the bike today, apparently couldn’t find anything wrong with it. They had a quick test ride and said it was fine, and to put my mind at rest. Phew!!
To be honest I had a feeling it was okay. I’m not saying that I did but if I had taken it for a couple miles round the block this morning I may have noticed it was responsive, pulled like a train, and felt nimble and everything I hoped it would. But of course that’s only if I had taken it out, which I’m not saying I did.
