Did the M.O.S.T today!!!

That's an extraordinarily bad result for a P's course Gazza. It's rare that you get more than 1 in a class that struggles with the Uturn, it is dead easy if you practise correctly. Admittedly at first it looks daunting but once you have a go (if the instructor has taught you the correct way) then it's pretty easy. I'd suggest your class had an ordinary instructor.

I agree that any LAMS bike should be able to do it - some are just harder and require more practice.
My instructor did it on his CBR600F - touched the line on the way out, but he did it.

Most of the trainees used to panic about stalling the bike 1/2 way thru the turn so......
Sneaky trick is to adjust the clutch lever so it slips, before doing the U turn so that the bike cannot stall

We used to have an instructor that used to do the MOST side saddle and one handed. He used to demo the course and then tell students that's how they had to do it......before letting them off the hook. We once demoed braking at 100 km/h on the course which had a few students shitting. All good fun We were actually trying to see how fast we could get on the timing beams from the T on the course on an R1 and a ZX9 during the lunch break.

As Rossi suggests stalling or not keeping the throttle under control is the biggest impedement to getting through the tight stuff. Practise slow riding (as taught in the L's course until your perfect at it). You'll be amazed how often you use it when manouevering.
