THE ROAD TO PASSING YOUR MOTORBIKE TEST

CBT. Upon obtaining your provisional licence you must undertake a Compulsory Basic Training Course (CBT) with an approved training body and obtain a CBT certificate. This will validate your provisional entitlement.

Once completed you will be allowed to ride on the road with L plates, but you are not allowed to carry passengers. The CBT certificate is valid for two years.

Welcome to Motorbike Trainers. On our site you will find useful information about the routes available to obtain your motorbike licence. We have a directory of motorbike trainers in the UK as well as information about the 2008 test (now the 2009 test!) and a free mock motorbike theory test to practice.

Motorbike Training does not finish when you pass your test. Become a more skilfull rider by taking advanced bike rider courses such as those leading to the Advanced DIAmond Test.

Practical Test. The following practical motorcycle tests are available:

Category P, can be taken on any moped.

Sub-category A1, must be taken on a bike of between 75cc and 125cc.

Category A, the practical test is taken on a bike of between 121cc and 125cc and capable of at least 100 kph. After passing the standard motorcycle practical test you will be restricted for 2 years to riding a bike of up to 25kW and a power/weight ratio not exceeding 0.16kW/kg. After this peiod you may ride any size of bike.

Direct Access Scheme (DAS). This scheme allows riders over the age of 21 to train and apply for the "big bike" test. This avoids the two year restriction that applies when passing the test on a 125cc bike.
