I hope this isn't a "useless" post, but I had to share that I just passed my 2nd attempt for my m2. I barely made it, and i cant believe they didnt fail me (3 out of 7 people flunked). I was messing up all over the place, but apparently in the right places (stalled 3 times). I passed with 10 demerit points, 11 would have failed me. I would have had to do the whole course over. I tell you, I am so happy right now I could dance in the street. Wooooooooooo Hoooooo. Now to insure this badboy

congrats!

and what's M2 license in your place?

bec here it only allows you to ride mopeds. M1 is the one for any 2-wheeled vehicle.

looks like he is from ontario. M2 is almost a full license except that you can't drink. M1 is the equivalent of a learning permit. To get a full M license you need to show up to the ministry drunk and do the test again. (one of the above statements is not true).

enjoy

LOL. Yeah thats pretty much the only difference between an m2 and a full m - the booze. The M2 is good for 5 (minimum 18 months) years, and then i'm expected to go for my full M, which involves highway riding and whatnot.

I tell you its a scary thought that someone like myself, with very little skill and road experience can go out and buy a 500 pound motorcycle and do pretty much anything I want. Luckilly I have already dedicated myself to a VERY long learning curve for this little project

Grats! another Ontario rider here, where did you have the problems, the cones or the street riding?

EDIT* Where in Ontario you located?

Good to hear that! Congrats on passing, I hope it's an enjoyable learning curve.

Congratulations. Which school did you do your course at? and where bouts in Ontario are you?

Good luck with the insurance.

I live in east toronto, but I had to go to the centenial college program (Scarborough) because my more local ones were booked up. Nice bunch of guys that run it.

As for where I had problems - it wasnt the same course that was in the study books. It was a series of maneuvers on a closed that tested various abilities. I found it pretty tough.
