The Truth About Why Most Riders Fail

(And It's Probably Not What Your Instructor Told You)

REASON 1:

Pushed Too Fast

Not Enough Training

Your training school had a test slot available, so they pushed you to take it - even though you weren't ready. It's easier for them to put you in for a test than admit you need more training.

Result: You failed because your basics weren’t solid enough.

REASON 2:

Wrong Technique

Taught Incorrectly

Some instructors teach "tricks" or shortcuts that work in training but fail in test conditions. Or they didn't explain the EXAMINER'S criteria - what they're actually looking for.

Result: You thought you were doing it right, but the examiner saw it differently.

REASON 3:

Observation Errors

Poor Observation

Most Mod 2 failures are observation errors: didn't check blind spot, missed a mirror check, failed to see hazard. But if no one SHOWED you exactly when and where to look, how were you supposed to know?

Result: Minor mistakes add up to a major failure.

HERE'S THE TRUTH:

You didn’t fail because you’re not capable. 
You failed because you didn’t get the training you needed.

Most riders are pushed into tests before they’re ready because training schools need to fill slots.
That’s not your fault – But it IS your problem to fix!

Real Riders Who Failed, Then Passed

Maria H -
Failed Mod 1, Passed with MRH

“I failed my Mod 1 because I wasn’t shown the U-turn properly.
My instructor just said ‘do it like this’ but never explained WHY.

MRH showed me the examiner’s perspective – what they’re looking for,
where they stand, what mistakes they see most.

Passed my retest with only 2 minors. Wish I’d found this before my
first attempt.”

Tim A -
Nearly Failed CBT, Used MRH for Tests

“Barely passed my CBT. Instructor said I was ready for Mod 1 but I
knew I wasn’t.

Used MRH to actually learn properly before my test. Passed Mod 1
and Mod 2 first time with no extra practical lessons needed.

Wish everyone knew about this before wasting money on tests they’re
not ready for.”

Brian D -
Failed Mod 2, Passed with MRH

“Failed Mod 2 on observation errors. I thought I was checking mirrors
but the examiner said I wasn’t doing it at the right times.

MRH has step-by-step videos showing EXACTLY when to look, where to
look, and how to make it obvious to the examiner.

Passed second time easily. Saved me hundreds in extra training.”

Why Riders Fail

SIMON HAYES

Why 40% of Riders Fail Their First Motorcycle Test!

I’ve been a professional Motorcycle Instructor since 1991. I’ve helped train over 20,000 riders, from complete beginners to military personnel.

I’ve seen the same pattern repeat thousands of times:

Training schools push riders into tests before they’re ready because they have test slots to fill. It’s easier to send you for a test and blame you for failing than admit you needed more training.

Here’s what most riders don’t realise – Failing isn’t your fault!

If you went into your test without knowing:

  • Exactly where to position at every junction
  • Exactly when to check every mirror
  • Exactly how examiners mark each manoeuvre
  • Exactly what “safe observations” actually means

…then you were set up to fail from the start.

I created Motorcycle Riders Hub so riders could see what PROPER preparation looks like – before wasting money on tests they’re not ready for.

Every technique is explained from the examiner’s perspective. Every common mistake is identified. Every failure point is addressed.
If your training school had shown you this BEFORE your test, you probably wouldn’t have failed.

But now you know. Don’t make the same mistake twice. Get the training you should have had the first time, pass your retest with confidence, and never look back.

Because your instructor had a test slot available and it’s easier for them to send you for a test than admit you need more training.

Most training schools are under pressure to maximise test bookings. They make money whether you pass or fail – but YOU pay the price of extra tests and more training.

Our course shows you what “test ready” actually looks like.

90% of riders who use our re-test preparation pass second time, compared to the UK average of around 75%.

You’ll see exactly what went wrong, learn the correct technique, and understand what the examiner is looking for.

Plus, money-back guarantee if you don’t feel more prepared.

Don’t book until you’re ACTUALLY ready – not when your instructor says there’s a slot available.

Watch our course, identify your weak points, practice the correct techniques, then book when YOU feel confident.

Rushing into a retest is how riders fail twice.

If you’ve prepared properly with our course and still fail, we’ll work with you to identify what went wrong and prepare you better.

Most riders who fail twice were either rushed into a re-test too early or they didn’t address their actual weak points.

Our money-back guarantee means you risk nothing.

Probably yes – but TARGETED lessons on your specific weak points, not just more general training.

Our course identifies exactly what you need to work on. Show your instructor these specific areas and you’ll make much better use of your practical training time (and money).

When you look at the cost of a re-test, it soon adds up. These are minimum costs below:

Mod 1 retest: £15.50
Mod 2 retest: £75
Extra practical training: £200-400+

Total: £300-500+ per failure
