Did a lot of unlicensed riding as a teenager in the 70's, A few years ago I bought a Honda VT600 Shadow, It's a large bike for a 600...full size.

Prepping for my test I laid out the cone weave in the street in front of my house, tried it on the 600 and thought it was impossible. Searched google and was enlightened to see 100 lb 5 foot tall ladies doing the cones weave on Goldwings and Road Kings. Well ok I realized this can be done and practiced and got pretty good.

Passed the test the first try, the inspector was impressed and said he very rarely does this but gave me a copy of the test showing the bike used. He told me I can bring it to the biker bar post riding and brag to my friends. Lots of posers around here rent a scooter for the road test convinced it can't be done on a full sized bike....well it can!
