A 3 day training course consists of 3 days of training to learn and take both module 1 and 2 tests. Suitable for experienced riders only.
The first 1.5 days of the course will be focused on preparing you for Module 1. Plenty of off-road balance and control practice for the required manoeuvres of the module 1 test.
Once you’ve passed module 1, you’ll then spend the other 1.5 days training for the module 2 test. Similar to the driving test, this involves road riding through various conditions, assessing your awareness and progress. The 3 day course is recommended for riders with a large amount of experience riding a geared motorcycle on the UK roads.
In order to take this course, you must meet the following requirements:
The full motorcycle licence course combines the training and tests for the two motorcycle tests, known as module 1 and module 2.
Module 1 is an off-road test to assess your handling and control of the bike.
Module 2 is an on-road test, similar to the car driving test. You’ll ride through a variety of road conditions under assessment from an examiner following on a motorcycle.
The official list of maneuvers for Module 1 is as follows:
For Module 2 you’ll be asked to ride across various local roads and within differing traffic conditions and whilst riding you’ll be asked to carry out a few different maneuvers:
The examiner will give you directions using a one-way radio worn on your ear. They’ll normally follow you on a motorcycle in much the same way as your instructor will do during your training.
The final part of module 2 is around 10 minutes of independent riding. This is designed to assess your ability to ride safely while making your own decisions so you can expect the examiner to give you a destination (or a series of turn instructions) and then they will follow behind to assess your riding.
Completing this course allows you to ride a motorcycle on the road without L-Plates, carry a pillion passenger and ride on motorways.
Depending on your age and the bike you train on will decide what you can ride after passing.
At 16 years old you can get an “AM” licence to ride a motorcycle or scooter up 50cc, restricted to 28Mph
At 17 – 18 years old you can get an “A1” licence to ride a motorcycle or scooter up 125cc
At 19 – 23 years old you can get an “A2” licence to ride a motorcycle or scooter up 35 Kw of power
At 24 years old and above you can get a full unrestricted “A” licence to ride a motorcycle or scooter of any power
If you take the tests on an automatic geared scooter or motorcycle, you’ll be restricted to only ride automatic bikes. Passing on a manual geared bike allows you to ride both.
