Default did you pass your skills test the first time?

I can't believe it, but I didn't pass the skills test to get my license. I took it on my R1, which happens to be lowered and I thought I had the skills to still pass it, but boy I was wrong lol. I ran over two cones, almost dropped the bike doing the u-turn lol. I'm just wondering if someone else had to take the test more than once.

need tires (take offs)? PM me
need a deal on a track day? PM me

disclaimer: I sell used tires (take-offs), these tires have been used at Jennings, Homestead, etc. (road courses for those that dont know) therefor these tires are more used up on the sides than in the middle,

Went a little wide in the serpentine.... thought I'd make up for it by sliding the back tire a bit around the second to last cone... new tires were sticky and the front came up a few inches. The instructor wasn't amused.

That was over a year ago and I'd only owned a street bike for about 3 weeks. I could probably pass the course riding backwards now.

I assume you didn't have the monkey bars back then?
