    I should also ask, is it acceptable to weave aggressively to dodge pot holes and such? Or is there a chance they may consider this a sharp or aggressive action as per the exam sheet?

    Make it smooth and have control of the bike, avoiding obstacles, etc, they shouldn't ding you.
    Best to ask the examiner this question BEFORE the test, so you know what his/her interpretation of it is. Each examiner is slightly different, some ride as well so they understand and there are some that don't even ride that do evaluate you
    It's the Least I Could Do

    This motorcycle is simply too goddamn fast to ride at speed in any kind of normal road traffic unless you're ready to go straight down the centerline with your nuts on fire and a silent scream in your throat.

    Passed my M2 exit, phew. Stressed me out for no reason really. Answer to the question above, YES you must move out of track to avoid obstacles. Move out of track and then back to track when safe - he will ding you if you don't. The instructor told me this, if I can remember;
    Watch the speed limits - Aurora changes a lot of times.
    Avoid obstacles and when safe, move back to track.
    Overexagerate moving your head for blind spots.
    Its okay to put both feet on the ground at traffic lights as long as he sees a brake light on.
    When getting on the highway, if you have to accelerate hard to 110/120km to merge safely, then do it and then bring your speed back to 100km.
    Thats about all I could remeber but its basically common sense and all about riding safe.
    Good luck Cha0s00100 for tomorrow. ps you will still be riding if its pissing it down - this I know.

    Just want to say that nfq is right. You should ask any questions before you leave the centre. The instructor I had was Jim who does ride bikes and was perfectly open to any questions.

    No. They only expect hand signals if your bike does not have any signals installed.
