hmm....u wanna ride a bike for 2 and a half years but without your parents knowing?? That's very optimistic. If u wanna get a old bike, get a lao-k lor, its the best that u can get. cheap, good, and anyhow buang also nvm.Heart also wont pain. To get your license in Jan, when u reg in Dec, that's nearly impossible to me. Because considering the fact of Dec is a holiday month, sure got alot of ppl go book slot and provided u pass almost all your subjects first shot, its really difficult.
if you're having exams now, in ITE uh? Anyway, go for the theory first lor
go there sit there for the stamps also song mah right? At least after your exams u dun need waste time go for theory.
that's all. My 3 cents worth. -

I just get my license from SSDC. I advice u to complete all 4 theory lessons within a day then go n take yr iveluation(dunno how to spell) asap to book for RTT provided u pass yr iveluation. In the meanwhile while u r waiting for yr RTT test, go n book for yr prac 1 n complete prac1 to prac5 asap cos prac6 to prac8 required yr PDL(PDL obtained when u ve passed yr RTT - $25)Originally posted by l3stat:hello.. i'm new here. plan to take license in december.. quite jialat.. haven't learn anything yet. plan to take at SSDC... got any advice to give on that? how long would it take if i take intensive? plan to finish and get license in january.

Secondly, pass yr RTT in one tried or else u will have to wait for the theory test...not worth the time wastage, somemore u will kena stuck in prac5 if u reached there b4 u passed yr RTT cos u no PDL mah.
Actually, if u absorb n learn fast. There is no prob u can reach prac8 within 1 1/2 to 2 mths provided u booked every prac at the earliest date available. Prac1, 5 n 8 can be quite tough.Prac 4,6,7 can pass in one tried lor. The headache is the TP(Final practical test) Must wait for 1 to 1 1/2 mths.It took me 2 1/3 mths to have my 2 TPs passed.
Inform me if u reach prac5, i have tips tt u can pass it in one shot v^^v hehe.
Dun flame pls cos i m just trying to help. -

Wat scram u looking for? KTM not realli recommended. KTM125 is even more problematic than 200. You can take a look at the topic on dirt rider and see our reply there abt scram.
Aniway...SSDC quite difficult to get practical sessions to fall within the next day. Normally, when u book a lesson, u will have to wait 2-3 days one. I'm not sure about BBDC though. -
BBDC has 5 theory lessons...
yap..faster clear theory and go book RTT..
if not wait half month more sibei sian..
Not realli u wan intensive, sure can one leh..
mus stil depend got dat stage on dat particular day or not...like me lah...hav to wait all the day til Friday den got the timeslot i wanna...but since u holiday..maybe not much of a problem...
get license by jan.....kinda impossible leh..
unless u referring to PDL......kekeke -
From wat i believe is everywhere is difficult to pass nw...cos too much accident....ssdc is quite strict...ubi is difficult due to heavy vehicles....BBDC is too much ah beng snd alot of pple pass out frm there die...(no offence)...so good luck...it all depends on urself for ur own safety...And wat type of bike u wan all i can sae 2B very few bike...so u can try listing the conditions u wan and we help u analyse
-
OH HEY HEY! i get what you all mean by RTT! yes i have my basic theory passed already! even had a PDL before, but it expired!! i just never took lessons before. does this make things a lot easier?
-
well... as for what bike i want... i know a serious constraint is price.. at most can afford up to $1.2k. i really don't mind an old bike, something like 2 years or so left. hopefully 4 stroke engine, don't have to run fast, but at least something reliable? sigh... this is giving me headache...Originally posted by tRanCE:From wat i believe is everywhere is difficult to pass nw...cos too much accident....ssdc is quite strict...ubi is difficult due to heavy vehicles....BBDC is too much ah beng snd alot of pple pass out frm there die...(no offence)...so good luck...it all depends on urself for ur own safety...And wat type of bike u wan all i can sae 2B very few bike...so u can try listing the conditions u wan and we help u analyse -

A good rider is one who can live long enough to ride another day. -
er.....u mean basic (BTT) or riding theory (RTT), they got difference one you know and also bike theory lesson are compulsory....so i think your situation not very good. like many others say, must pass your riding theory fast and in one shot or elso very jia lat. I lucky pass my RTT in one try or else i stuck in lesson 5...Anyway I having my TP on the 29th at SSDC.Originally posted by l3stat:OH HEY HEY! i get what you all mean by RTT! yes i have my basic theory passed already! even had a PDL before, but it expired!! i just never took lessons before. does this make things a lot easier? -

oh shucks... okie... i guess it dpds on my luck.. oh well.. camp at ssdc already!
daniuge, oic.. okie.. what i meant was i've taken only basic theory. didn't know there is a riding theory.. SIGH...
as for the bike, i dunno lar.. been thinking abt getting a hexagon also, but auto like quite funny. would still prefer scrambler.. yup but i'm keeping TZR in mind.. a classmate of mine has one... -
If u are looking for a crash course, I would recommend u go BBDC coz I taking it there now too... keke... no commision fee taken de ar! I go there also becoz frens say easier to pass lah...
If u are looking for second hand bikes... especially dirt bikes can recommend you WR or XR if u want more options bout dirt bikes can ask more of the 'lao jiaos' at other topics...
Gd luck in ur search and ur effort to get a fast licence. -
okay. bbdc is a bit far for me because i stay at hougang. i heard about the WR, being out of production at your thread. but i realize one problem i'll have is that i prob can't afford a proper running one. cos my budget is like $1.2+k max, unless i sell my guitars. which means i can only get a very old one that'll kill me with maintenance.. hmm... maybe i'll settle for a road bike..Originally posted by Yinnig:If u are looking for a crash course, I would recommend u go BBDC coz I taking it there now too... keke... no commision fee taken de ar!

Regarding ur 1.2k, u can use it for the first payment nd carry on the installments... if u only wanna find a bike that only cost 1.2k ar... is a bit problem lahz, unless u want those like those 'a-pek' ride want... joking ar!
U staying at Hougang ar, I understand that it is quite far lahz... But as for me I dun mind the distance really becoz I know the licence can be quite hard to pass de. So I also bo bian everytime travel from Toa payoh to BBDC to attend lessons
Currently I also trying for a crash course too. Taking about 1-2 lessons per week, hoping to pass everything at first try
GD LUCK
