    Hi Ade, Yeah know of the Consumer acts, have used at work :). Took it there this morning and said he would have a look and fix so hopefully all is well on that front. Its the same place where I got my Bandit from and that had a small problem when purchased and he sorted that out straight away. On the starting side of things yes, just starter switch and no throttle. Had read that somewhere on a daytona review. I only give it a few seconds each time i try to start.

    I think I had 5 rides with an observer and then a further 1 with a different observer to act as a check. Each ride was about 2 weeks apart and lasted for about 1 - 2 hours.

    I took my test with an examiner from Birmingham. I met him at the motorcycle museum. He was previously a police motorcycle instructor. If you end up with the same guy I recorded the route with my action cam so I can recreate the route in Garmin Basecamp if you want it.

    Hi all,

    For the first time in my life (I'm 50) I've actually been smart enough to learn from someone else's mistakes. Put these on today! Just hope it's not tempting fate...
