    Yes, that was indeed a f'd up fail, lol. I got back to work and they asked how it went and I explained I failed and why. Lots of laughs.

    The best part is the next time I took the road test it wasn't on the FZ1, I had the 900lb cruiser. That made me nervous.

    Just an FYI, I've been riding since I was 5, and am now 35 years young. I took the advanced course about 5 or 6 years ago just to get a discount on my insurance (which turned out to be a joke...) and I'd be lying if I didn't tell you I learned something.
    Don't rule these courses out or think that since you've been riding for so long there is no possible way you could learn something, or see these courses as a waste of money...
    I'm not saying you have that mentality, just making sure newbies don't read into what you said and take it that way.

    x2. I got a non-transferable voucher with my bike so I took it and I am glad I did... but I didn't shell out for it so it's a little different.
