Welcome to the forum, I’m just down the road in Leicestershire.

Best of luck with your test - just make sure you keep it sunny side up.

Welcome to the forum and good luck with the test.
Keep the revs on the bike low initially (below 5-6k) which will be plenty quick enough, until you gain experience and confidence as it will surprise you how fast these are if you give it some welly!

Thank you for advice, it really looks fast and revs really quick. Im sure that 5-6k rpm will give me a lots of pleasure for a long time

Welcome. These are some great bikes. Forgiving, but fast. As @Al1040 says, "you can give it some welly". My American English-speaking self had to research that one. But once I got it, yes indeed, they like it when you give them some welly.
