Motorcycle training FAQs

WHAT CAN I RIDE?
On a CBT:
Age 16: 50cc moped
Age 17: up to a 125cc scooter or motorcycle
A CBT certificate on a moped is also valid for motorcycles once the rider has reached 17 years of age and has the necessary licence.

Full licence:
Age 16 AM moped licence

Age 17 A1 Light motorcycle licence (125cc)

Age 19 A2 Standard motorcycle up to 35 kW (and a power-to-weight ratio not more than 0.2 kW per kg), bike must not be derived from vehicle more than twice its power.

Age 21+ Full A Licence  Progressive access route - held an A2 licence for a minimum of 2 years - practical test). You can now ride any motorcycle.

Age 24 Full A licence.  Unrestricted motorcycles in size/power, with or without a sidecar, and motor tricycles with power output over 15 kW

HOW LONG DOES THE CBT TAKE?
Usually we start at 8:30 -9am and most will finish by approx 4pm but we can accommodate other start times.

CAN I FAIL THE CBT?
No, the CBT is not a test.

WHAT DO I NEED TO BRING WITH ME TO THE CBT?
  1. Provisional or full car licence.
  2.  Sturdy footwear.
  3. Any motorcycle clothing you own and wish to use ( we can also provide this)
  4. Lunch or money
DO I HAVE TO PROVIDE MY OWN BIKE?
No, we have plenty of different machines to suit most riders. You can of course use your own as long as it is fully insured and road legal.

WHAT IS THE STUDENT TO INSTRUCTOR RATIO?
Two students per instructor.

WHAT ARE YOUR PASS RATES?
Honestly... We stopped counting! Our pass rate is very high and we strive to maintain a very high standard. Our reputation speaks for itself.

HOW LONG DOES THE TRAINING TAKE?
CBT is usually a day although it can take longer.

Full licence depends on the individuals needs and work/life commitments as well as available test slots. We would happily discuss a package/ timescale with you and arrange your training to suit.

IS YOUR INSTRUCTOR FRIENDLY?
We think so. Leigh has a relaxed teaching style and years of experience on bikes and as an instructor plus we also keep him topped up with coffee throughout the day just to be sure.
You can see how we work by watching our youtube videos... 

Ive taken a CBT before, do I have to do the whole thing again?
Yes. You will naturally complete the course quicker than a novice but are still required to complete the full CBT syllabus.
