TP tips for 2B?

WoBuPaNi SG

Hi all, i am learning to get a 2B license at SSDC and i went for 3 road revisions and 4 circuit revisions and my traffic police test is on 8 jan, which is 3 more days. Hope to have some tips from old birds out there to teach this new bird how to not fail in a Tp? I know things like not getting immediate failure and getting fewer points but.. i still scared and gan jiong as the day gets nearer

wat i used to do is to sit on a chair at home. close my eyes n visualise riding thru the entire course.

u must include every detail such as checking blind spots n gear changing n stopping on the correct foot. all the fine print ya.

do it over n over again until its second nature to u. ul be more confident during yr test.

good luck

i also from ssdc, if u are get a immediate failure, u is directly go back to waiting area. no need go out to road. so as long as u are able to get out of circuit, u most probably can pass. dont kan chiong. when doing crank course fig 8, u can position slightly near the line. before turning in, move abit to the right and counter steer in. dont kan chiong. as long as u turning, there will always be blind spot to check. and change lane. and rmb the yellow box, when u just start? becareful of that also. dont fuck with it, my 1st tp got 1 guy, less than 5 mins come back, cause die at yellow box. every1 very shock. so yeah. like what skeujin say, visualize urself doing the test in ur mind, where need to check blind spot.

few things i did when i took my tests that really helped me.

i adjusted the idle of the bike to a higher rev. i find this helps prevent the bike from dying suddenly.

adjustment of clutch to my preference with a further biting point. also prevents engine dying during mis clutch incidents.

always always check your blind spots. an extra flick of your head to the side will save u plenty of points.

You dont have to be scared, cos testers on road are sometimes blocked view by big cars and vans.

Your important portion to look out for is the circuit.

Ask your instructors and have them show the map of the circuit and what is the progression from the move out point of the circuit to the road.

Then ask about where at the map you are suppose to turn your heads or the portion most needed to change lane and what happens when there is cars there.

Then practise turning your heads at the points where the instructors tells you to. Even if you are not really looking, the motion of turning your head will show the tester that you are careful.

Dont put too much pressure on yourself.

Remember the places you need to turn your head and your road trip will be easier.

but remember...4 stroke bike need to regularly change its Engine Oil(EO) like a month or two months once depending on the mileage u went...because its more prone to drying up than 2 stroke bike.
