You mean you passed a motorcycle test on your first try?!?!?! Impressive! Welcome to the wonderful world of motorcycling! (At least according to the TX DMV)
Oh and as for "bad boy"... Doc I'm not "bad", I'm "naughty"... Get it right!
So, I have to re-take my road test for a car and bike!

FOUR weeks!!!!totalmotorcycle wrote:Update: Great news! With the MSF course passed and the DPS (that's the Texas DMV) motorcycle "written" test (it's actually not written anymore as it's on a computer) passed, my M class licence will be arriving in 4 weeks.
Sheesh. In NJ, you pass the MSF, they give you an endorsement on your learner's permit on the spot. Take it to the DMV office the next day, walk out with a M-endorsed license.2003 Triumph Trophy 1200

Some of the questions the TX DMV asked were quite "questionable", like:Wrider wrote:You mean you passed a motorcycle test on your first try?!?!?! Impressive! Welcome to the wonderful world of motorcycling! (At least according to the TX DMV)

The front brake provides what percentage of braking power:
A. 100%
B. 75%
C. 60%
D. None
If you said A, you would be right.
...and LOL, yes! Now I can't wait to have my first Texas bike.
The bike course was worth it and atleast I should see some insurance "discount" from it too.Mike

The front brake only supplies braking power if you use it, lol. So, in Texas, if you use the rear brake only, you only think you stop?

LOL... some good chuckles in there! 
...but I see that Mike forgot to mention that he did not pass his parallel parking test with flying colours - at some point you'll have to ask him what it felt like to back into the flexi-pole!
(I'm so mean...)
