From

Module 1
This is called the specified manoeuvres test, and is conducted
on an off road site and involves element you will have done

full and affective observations.
You will be required to:-
1. Take the bike on and off the stand, under full control.
2. Wheel the bike around in a semi-circle backwards, under
full control.
3. Then ride forwards through a slalom for 5 cones.
4. Then straight into a figure of eight.
5. You will then move to the start point where you will then
ride forward and around a circuit marked out by cones at 30km/h
or 19 mph.
6. You will then accelerate up to 50 km/h or 32 mph and pass
through timing lights which record your speed before doing
the avoidance test, (you must be doing 50 km/h as you pass
the timing lights or it will be deemed a failed attempt. You
are allowed 2 attempts as long as you haven’t hit the
cones on your first attempt).
7. This then leads in to a controlled stop, (stopping with
the front wheel in a box make of 4 cones).
8. The next thing you will encounter is the U-turn, (which
is conducted between 2 painted lines 7.5 metres apart).
9. You will then ride the bike forward in slow control mode
between 2 sets of cones.
10. You will then move back over to the start point and ride
the circuit a second time and pass the timing lights at 50
km/h, then conduct an emergency brake manoeuvre.
Module 1 is expected
to take approximately 22 minutes.
Having passed module
1 the pass will be tagged to your theory test and is valid
for the life of your theory test certificate. You then are
eligible to take module 2.
