I failed my test in the MSF course. During the 140º turning test, my left foot slipped off the peg and caught the shifter, instantly downshifting me from 2nd to 1st. As the revs shot up, the bike went bolt upright, making doing the turn impossible.

I went and took the test at the DMV on my friends 250 CC Honda Rebel. The bike was way too small for me, but the absolutely biggest bike I'd recomend for the test. The slalom and stopping portions of the test would have been impossible on a bigger/heavier bike.
