Compulsory Basic Training
The CBT is a course that is designed to introduce you to motorcycling. It is not a test. It contains 5 modules that once completed successfully, will allow you to ride on the road unsupervised as a learner. You are restricted to the following though:
- You may ride up to a maximum of 125cc (depending on your age and licence categories).
- You must display L-plates, front and rear.
- You cannot carry pillion passengers.
- You cannot ride on motorways.
Restricted 33bhp Licence
Once you have completed your CBT, you should take further training. If you train and test on a 125cc machine, you will then be able to ride a motorcycle that has a maximum power output of no more than 33bhp, this restriction lasts for 2 years from the date that you passed your test. At the end of your 2 year period, your licence will automatically upgrade to a full unrestricted licence.
Academy Motorcycle Training can offer either intensive full licence courses over consecutive days, or we can break the training up into individual days based around your free time.
Direct Access
If you are over 21, and have successfully completed your CBT, you can obtain a full unrestricted licence by taking your test on a machine that produces a minimum of 46.6bhp.
As with all Academy Motorcycle Training courses, these are available regardless of your previous experience. Since the inception of the Direct Access Scheme (DAS) in 1997, we have been at the forefront of designing training courses to adapt to an individuals needs and requirements.
Theory Test Training
We can supply training aids for home use.
Advanced Tuition
We are able to offer both intermediate (for newly qualified licence holders) and advanced tuition, for those wishing to either take the advanced test or to just fine tune their motorcycling skills.
Born Again Courses
If you already hold a full licence, but it has been some time before you last rode, we can arrange a course of lessons for you, either on your own machine or on one of our larger capacity bikes.
Instructor Training Courses
We offer Instructor training to the highest level, conducted by our Chief Training officer, who has been conducting Instructor Training since 1992.
