Greetings tracspe and welcome to the forum
Riding doesn't come naturally to a lot of us and you need to walk before you can run. You need to remember that the DAS course is intensive motorcycle training. Compare it to car driving, assuming you are a car driver? Some peeps pass after only a few lessons others take forever before the penny drops, riding is no different. The DAS course's total 4-5 days training.
There are already quite a few members experiences such as yours posted on the forum, mine included if you want to read it it's here
How many times to pass a bike test?
post 105. In a nutshell, I sacked my DAS as it was too intensive, too much pressure. I bought a 125 and ride as and when, at my own pace etc and it's fandabbybluddydozy
. If I'm ready to take my test before it changes - great, if I'm not then so be it!! But that will be down to how I feel, without pressure from anyone else.
There are a few of us in here who ride with 'L' plates on our own bikes to gain experience, without the pressure to perform from an instructor's voice in your ear all the time.
