I could pass the test on my Fatty. Would I want to try it when it counts? No.
I would try to find something a little smaller and lighter. Thats just me.

it's just a matter of practice and confidence. imagine taking the test on an flh harley. no biggie if you're used to your bike. the next time you go into a harley dealership sit on an ultraclassic, and you'll feel like your fatboy is much easier to maneuver in comparison. good luck, just practice and you should be just fine.
