    Can you buy big off road tyres to fit your Honda? Why don’t buy a little trail bike which is ideal for that terrain? It’s shame to put a nice bike like that through all that mud you’ll end up damaging it ? Good idea to treat your electrics with wd40 before the ride to protect them?

    Tidy. Did you do a CBT or do you have a full fat bike licence? I've been meaning to to do my bike test for ages but never got round to it.

      Doing your motorbike test is not as hard as you think it is. Get your full test so you can ride any bike, then you won't have to retest the CBT every 2 years. Get the training at your local bike trainers, pay them to take you to both parts. Part 1 then part 2. Will cost about £600 depending on where you are in the world. Money well spent and so much better understanding of traffic awareness, bike control taught on both parts.

      @@Bobario1 Yes.
      Restricted licence A1 or full licence, A2
      1.CBT
      2.Theory test (could take months to book this in)
      3. Part 1 module 1 test
      4. Part 2 module 2 test
      To get the A1 licence, you need a valid driving licence (provisional category A), a CBT certificate, a valid motorcycle theory pass certificate, and to pass the A1 assessment day. Upgrading to higher licence categories such as A2 or A licence is possible after turning 19 years old.
      Just do the A2 licence After you’ve passed your "theory" test
      you’ll also need to pass: Module 1 and 2 (So 4 tests in total, see above.)
      an off-road riding test going round cones, stopping etc (known as the ‘module 1 test’)
      an on-road riding test examiner follows you for about 35 minutes (known as the ‘module 2 test’)
      Its not clear even if you google it or ring up a bike training company.
      Just do it - and good luck.
