Put my foot down during U turn on test !!!

AND I PASSED!

Yes I had my test this morning, everything was going well, I was told to pull up and then was told to wheel my bike to the other side of road which I did "JUST" ,very narrow road!, anyway getting to the other side during u turn i thought i was going to hit the curb, so my foot went down, I asked for another go at it but he said no and await my instruction to move of. At this point i was calling myself all the names under th sun as i was doing so well.

Anyway we get back to the test centre and he asked my a question about balance.

THEN HE SAID CONGRATULAIONS YOU HAVE PASSED.

I had no minor faults , he said it was a great ride.

I am well chuffed!

Cheers for help the other day regarding my 1st post.

Well done mate, bet it feels flippin' great don't it?

Think you got away with it on the u-turn. I suppose it depends on the examiner. But then again if your ride was great he probably didn't see any just cause to fail you on that one mistake.

Wow, R6 eh, take it easy mate.

congrats ....

when i sat my test - i was told a foot down is not necessarily an automatic fail, but its such an dodgy yeah or nay on the circumstances, its best not to do it.
