- I'm starting a short series based around the Module 2 test in the UK. We'll talk about what's involved, how to prepare and putting the skills onto practice before test day.
In this first episode I'll give a few small tips for passing Mod 2, what will happen on the day as well as what the examiner will ask you to do during the test. Then at the end we'll go over the show me tell me and pillion passenger questions.
Site I used for the Mod 2 questions.

Thanks for the help Lewis Capaldi
Lmfao 🤦♂️😁
Shite patter
The riding is the only thing that calms his tourettes symptoms. He's driving a loop round Glastonbury festival for his concert this year.
After failing a MOD 2 test a couple of weeks ago, your videos have helped me endlessly in preparing me for another attempt at the MOD 2 this morning which I passed! Thank you so much for taking the time to make these videos.
That's awesome to hear, Gaz. Well done mate. 🤜🤛
What did you fail for?
Well done fella
I recently passed Mod 2 with zero minor faults recorded. That was entirely due to what I learned in this series of videos. Thanks so much for putting together the videos, they were a massive help.
Hey, Duncan. That's great to hear and congratulations on a great pass. 🤜🤛
Passed Mod 2 today in Farnborough with a perfect score.
My instructor was really good, and he deserves a lot of credit. But your videos really helped chill me out before both my tests. High quality stuff, I just wanted to say thank you.
Glad you found them helpful mate. Congrats on the pass. 🤜🤛

Thanks for the excellent video, subscribed today and going for my CBT very shortly. I’m familiar with most of the roads you filmed as I used to stay not far from the area although now working and living down south. I’m very much looking forward to the bike riding.
Hey, Craig. Appreciate the sub bud. The CBT is great fun. It definitely gives you a taster for bike riding and gets you motivated for the bigger bikes. My last video was on the CBT course. It just gives you an insight on what to expect on the day. Have fun on your CBT. 🤜🤛
Got mine tomorrow morning... Nervous is an understatement!

@@liamwilson1608 best of luck, Liam. 🤜🤛
Going for Mod 2 Mid January in Stirling, just passed Mod 1 today at Kirkcaldy, got absolutely drenched XD
Thanks for creating these videos. It helped me pass my Mod 2 today. Keep up with the great content!
Thanks bud. That's awesome man, congrats.
Really good video thanks. My mod 1 is fast approaching so I'm preparing as much as possible thanks again.
Cheers, Iain. Are you all set for Mod 1?
@@MotoEcosse I think so
hi mate, are you doing it with an istructor or just taking your own bike by yourself?
@@feedthedonkey1 hi there I'm just doing it on my own with my bike no instructor
@@iainwallington474 perfect, i was worried i had to have an instructor for a minute, im only doing my A1 license (125cc), do you know if i can do it on my 125 automatic scooter? i only want an automatic license like? thanks for your help
Best help available on you tube
Hey man, brilliant tips, thanks very much. Failed my first Mod 2 misjudging a sign of all things and ended up doing 55 in a 30 zone lol. Here's for the re-test :-)
Glad you find them helpful. Best if luck for the re sit. 🤜🤛
Dude, I love the video series full of great stuff. I just wanna mention about the 'pillions must face forwards'. There is an aspect to that relating to the fact that some women (here in SE Asia) like to sit side saddle as they are wearing a skirt. If they do this it is very hard for them to face forwards and I would also guess that in the UK that might be illegal (to sit side saddle). From memory the highway code says you should sit astride the bike, right?
So, that could be part of the reasoning.
Keep making vids :)
I hope my examiner has a voice like you do
Great vid! Got mod 2 again in a bit so this was a usefull bit of last min info.
Made a silly blunder on first attempt with only a few minors so should be ok unless I have a real melt down. (touch wood)
All the best for it mate. 🤜🤛
It's one thing to tell people not to worry and relax but it's another thing to do that. Great advice though.
it would be a crime not to thank you for all your mod1 and mod2 uploads
i passed mod2 today so thank you id buy you a beer but i dont know where in scotland you are pal
Watched all your vids abt mod2, passed today
Your a god sent thank you🫵🏽👍🏽
Hey man, passed my mod 1 today. So time to rewatch all your mod 2 videos 😁😁
Fantastic, David. Well done mate. If you need any help or advice on mod 2 just let me know. 🤜🤛
How did you do on your mod 2
Thanks bud your videos are great and gave me so much confidence going for my mod 2 today and yes a pass cheers
Excellent, James. Congratulations. 🤜🤛
Thanks for the great vid and tips chap. Do you know if I can take the theory test before I do the CBT, as I have about a month till I take my CBT and I want to get it out the way for when I come to take the DAS.
Thanks a lot!
=D
Cheers man. Yes you can mate. You do need to have your theory completed before mod 1 and 2 though.Hope this helps.
Thanks for excellent video.....my take on instructor causing you nevous; my suggestion is to be relax assuming the instructor is your best friend and YOU are the one who is teaching him/her, how to ride a bike. In other-words, showing off your competence and skills to your buddy.
Appreciate that man, another good way to look at it. 🤜🤛
Thanks for the advice, great video dude. What bike are you riding in this? Guessing a Fazer or Bandit S? They're on the top of my list after I pass the mod 2 tomorrow! 😁
Hey, Danny. I ride a Suzuki sv650s. I changed the bars to straight bars to make it more comfortable. All the best for your mod 2 mate. 🤜🤛
You absolute legend!
🤜🤛
Honestly seems pretty simple tbh, obviously bike control is a major part of the test but since most riders already have a car license i think the whole being scared of the road rules etc and fear of traffic is out the window because of exp so just the bike control that you need to focus on
Hi
Day 1 after Lockdown 2 and passed my mod 2 today.
Phew, it’s a relief
Thanks for your videos. Very accurate views on the test and examiner
Looking forward to the rest of your series.
Now what bike to go for?? Interceptor/ 700 Tracer. Your thoughts would be a help
That's fantastic, Beverley, congratulations. Should have a few more videos up next week. If you get a chance to go for a test ride on bike first to get a feel for them. I have been on a tracer before and thought it was a great bike, more than enough power for your first bike but definitely manageable.
Doing my DAS soon 😜👍🏼
Cheers dude proper nervous welshman and you made me feel a lot better and my mod1 is booked now
That's good to hear, Wayne. Once you've sat your mod 1 you'll realise that it was nowhere near as hard or nerve wracking as what you thought it would be. Plus, mod 1 is like 10 minutes long. It honestly felt like 2 minutes when I did mine. All the best for it, I'm sure you'll smash it. 🤜🤛
@@MotoEcosse cheers buddy mega happy and genuinely nervous but I'm sure I'll smash it buddy and seriously your videos are great buddy
@@strider9583 appreciate that man. 🤜🤛
Mod 1 passed no minors and mod 2 booked for 18th October still nervous tho haha
@@strider9583 congrats on that pass, Wayne. Not long to go for mod 2 then. Honestly there's no need to be nervous about mod 2. If you got through mod 1 with no minors you'll absolutely smash mod 2. 🤜🤛
got my mod 2 tomorrow on the sv650 awsome bike
Yeah it's a great bike to ride. Plenty of power to have a bit of fun on. All the best for your mod 2. 🤜🤛
@@MotoEcosse failed nearly went on the mortorway on the roundabout that i usally go on and I fkin brain farted lmao everything else was perfect no minors rebooked for 16th everyone else passed ther. :((
Nice video 👍
Appreciate it. 🙂
Got my MOD2 tomorrow, great video, has really put my mind at ease! I'm going to get it in my head that I'm going out for a ride with a mate who's going to give me directions...worked on my car
test all those years ago!!! 🤞🤞🤞
Glad your feeling more at ease mate. That's always a massive bonus. All the best for today. 🤜🤛
Fantastic video, very helpful, thank you. Doing my mod 2 in just under 2 weeks, fingers crossed.
Safe riding!
Appreciate that mate. All the best for test day. 🤜🤛
Awesome helpful vids, you deserve way more views! BTW, don’t use pressure washer on yer bike dude! 😬 Maybe see you out on the road some day in Bonnie Scotland
Cheers man. I've always used a pressure washer and it's been fine. Obviously I don't get it too close. 🤜🤛
Thanks.
I passed 🙏🏾🙏🏾
That's awesome bud, congratulations 👏
Thanks bro got my mod 2 tomorrow 🤞
All the best for tomorrow, Jo. 🤜🤛
@@MotoEcosse I pass it your video help thanks
@@jogalil congratulations, Jo. That's great to hear. 🤜🤛
Cheers for the guidance! I was wondering, is having pillion passenger insurance a legal requirement when carrying a pillion?
Yes as far as I'm aware you must notify your insurance if you plan to ride with a pillion. I know every policy/quote I've had has always asked if I'd be riding with a pillion.
Have you swapped the clip ons for upright bars on your sv650s?
Evening mate, thanks alot. I didn't no any of this. A big thank you. Top man 👍😁💪
🤜🤛
@@MotoEcosse ya got a new sub. 😎😁💪👍
@@stealthandysteath1069 cheers, Andy. Really appreciate it bud. 🤜🤛
So do you own the bike before getting the license then? Like, bring your own?
I want to do an A2 on a c.300cc moped (which I have read is possible) - how does that affect the theory test /show me-tell me ?
What year is your SV, i'm on an 08 SV650s and love it, what is your thoughts
Hey, Matthew. My sv is an 03. I think it's a great bike. It's my first big bike so it's definitely got more than enough power. I am planning on upgrading next year though. I did change the handlebars on mine. I wasn't a big fan of the clip ons.
Hi , would love to know what year your sv 650 is.
Thinking of buying a 2007 suzuki sv 650 or a 2016.
Need touring handle bars on 2007. I know you changed yours
Apologies for the late reply. Mine is a 2004 and I changed the bars to rental 758s with an ABM conversion kit. 🤜🤛
@Moto Ecosse thanks, love the videos, very professional 👏
Great communication skills.
A Natural.
I've been riding a 125 for almost 2 years now I'm looking to get my a2, would you recommend having an instructor?
I'd always recommend getting at least a lesson or 2, mainly to sort out any faults you might have in your riding. 🤜🤛
You didn’t explain checking cut off switch. How the hell can I check it without engine running?
For mod 1 and mod 2, do you have to have an instructor/lessons, or can I just turn up on my own bike, im only doing my A1 test at the minute, so just 125cc nut I rode on it for a year on my cbt, I have a full driving license for 11 years so I feel quite confidnet in taking the test, and can I just bring my automatic 125cc scooter, I only want an auto license anyway?? thanks for any help
For both mod 1 and mod 2 you'll need to be with an instructor. You may not need a lot of lessons but it'll always be best getting a few to make sure.
assuming you're over 24 given driving history; you can do both exams on your own personal bike. Your bike must meet all their power/weight requirements and you must get insurance (it is possible to get temp insurance on personal bike to ride with the examiner on the test - you wont be insured to ride the bike to the test center). I did my mod 1 DAS on my own bike, but mod 2 is so much easier through a school in my opinion
what equipment do you use to record your videos while riding?
Hey, Alexander. I use a GoPro hero 9 and a blue panda mic. 🤜🤛
Great content - keep it up! I just passed my test last week and own a 2020 CBR5OOR. Feels plenty fast enough until I get some miles and cornering experience under my belt.I'm in Aberdeenshire, so like you, have plenty of interesting roads on the doorstep.
That's fantastic man, congratulations. It feels good to get the test over and done with. It definitely takes a few months to build the confidence in corners. I'm 3 months in and gettting more confident and comfortable every day. Aye yeah, we totally have the best roads 😂
@@MotoEcosse Aye, its a great feeling! Cornering is definitely an art. Relaxing and looking well ahead makes all the difference. Did 175 miles on Friday - weather was cracking. All the best.
Are you happy with the bike a year on @Steve? Thinking of one myself. Will be my first bike after 6 months of riding.
@@Ms_penny_peel I don't have the bike now, but I would say its a great bike to gain some initial experience on. After about 8 months I was looking for something with a bit more power and moved to a Z900RS.
bearing in mind speed limits are a maximum not a target , could you please advise me on minimum speed limits in given areas like 40mph 30 mph , 60 mph as i am about to do my mod 2 and am concerned if i miss a 40mph and am doing 30mph is this a fail ? or would he take into account that i may have missed the speed limit and am just keeping to 30mph to be on the side of caution
Hey, Gatti. Not sure if it would be a fail but you may get minors for it. Enough minors will result in fail. Go over the limit by too much will be fail. As for minimum, they ideally want you to be as close to the speed limit as possible. You are right that it's not a target but the examiners need to see you riding at speed limits. Not only to make sure you're capable of riding the bike at higher speeds e.g national speed limit roads and they want to see you observing all the road sign to adjust your speed up or down as needed. It's not just a case of missing a speed sign, the examiner needs to see you react to the sign i.e checking your mirrors before speeding up or slowing down and applying brakes.
If my passenger is getting on facing the wrong way first thing i am saying is keep an eye out for plod lol
Could anyone explain to me how to check cut of switch operation?
When engine runs - it’s normal - it will die. But without engine running???
I'll have a wee look into that. 👍
is that a. abm handlebar kit on your bike
Yes mate with renthal 758 bars.
I have a abm handlebar kit on my cbr600rr I love it
Sorry for the question. Stirling roads?
They are indeed.
@@MotoEcosse I failed 2 weeks ago my Mod2 in the Wellgreen roundabout :( next shot in a month. Thanks for the videos are really helpful.
@@kalinca123 What was the reason for the fail?
Hello, how many mod2 lessons did you have prior to your test?
I had about 5 lessons for my mod 2 including a once over everything on test day.
Ok thanks.. got my mod2 booked in the middle of April, started this journey 10 months ago. ( cbt-mod2 ). Lockdowns , cancellations, and back logs.. it’s been a bitch but hopefully I can get there..
stay safe.
Yeah I was the same, had mod 2 cancelled due to covid but luckily got it done last August. All the best on test day.
Have I miss heard you saying the minimum tread depth is 1mm? This caused me to drop a mark on my test theory 😂 they want the answer of 1.6mm brilliant video with great descriptions of what’s needed. Thanks
@@Cookie69697 Hi mate. Yes the minimum is 1mm before the tyre needs changing. Yeah I know the question you're talking about, it does say 1.6mm on the theory and 1mm on the government site 🤷♂️🤣. Appreciate the comment 👍
