  2. If it's the written test you're talking about, I can't help much but
    suggest that you know the complete set of rules that you get in the
    driving manual. They have a range of tests, so sitting once and then
    learning the ones you got wrong may not help you as the next paper may
    have different questions.

    If you're talking about the practical riding test, the two big things
    are emergency braking (using both brakes but not locking either of them)
    and slow speed manoeuvering (u-turns and figure eights).

    They'll also be looking for situational awareness stuff like head checks
    etc.

    Just as long as they dont take you through Highfields during heavy fog with
    a new set of traffic lights, sorry Peter, couldnt help myself hehehe.
    BTW, Tryg raised the idea of getting about 5 or 6 ct110's to take to
    Stanthorpe. CT110 enduro racing, sounds tops, im gonna get one. Probably
    about $350 - $500 for one from the auctions. Tryg wants to chrome his, but
    im gonna go for the matt black!!

    Cheers

    Oh, and if you go for your license in Oakey, make sure you are aware of
    uncontrolled intersections even if they are dirt!!

    Is that a requirement? My bike taps have an 'on' and 'off' position,
    no reserve. Helen's bike (still unsold) has the taps behind the side
    covers. Only there so you can remove the tank without making a huge
    mess.
