anyway, hopefully I'll have my license and bike by mid summer
What's everyone paying for insurance?

| if you know how to drive manual and ride a bike that helps alot. The hardest part of the riding test was doing U-turns, but my track/auto-x racing instructors teachings helped alot with that | |

I'm planning on going to the school as a walk-in, but I might just go ahead and take the test at the DMV and try to get my license.
I'll PM you later tonight

Was the U-turn suppose to be done in a narrow area or certain boundaries? What kind of bike do they use? | |

about the actual test with those NIU Classes...DO NOT drop the bike. If you have to put a foot down (especially around the u-turn part) then do so. 3 points get added to your score rather than failing. (the higher your score on the riding portion means BAD) | |
