The government can't hold our hands forever. If anyone does any of the above points 1 through 65 in a haphazard, stupid fashion, they're bound to get into trouble.

How one applies what you learned, that always is the issue that always is what should keep us alive, wouldn't you say?Ī K53 Summary (bold highlighting, among others, Real Life factors, you agree?):ġ. The K53 test is supposed to be a scope of basic skills, ala govenment: "This is a practical test to determine the ability of motorcycle riders." It's always in the practical application, isn't it?:grin: but then I DID say "most" and a recipe doesn't teach anyone to bake a cake either. Fact!" IMHO K53 teaches you virtually nothing that will assist in keeping you alive, all it does is ensure you are able to keep the bike upright & start & stop at 25km/h. I do disagree with your statement that the "K53 teaches you most things that you will use in the Real World. Bad choice of words although demonstrated pretty well. Nice clips - the 3rd one is brilliant! The second one - he constantly talks about "pushing down on the handlebar" - factually incorrect.

No harm EVER in practicing those emergency swerves - it takes the daily sticky out of biking! :thumbleft: Fact!Ĭounter Steering is required on most movements, yet it's still greatly misunderstood.

Let's face it.K53 teaches you most things that you will use in the Real World.
