From another point of view. What test do you do depending on age of rider and sizes/power output of bike.
What does CBT involve ? One day, basic training. What happens. Will I get wet ?

How to Fail the driving test Lets be positive - How to Pass. Pass by understanding what the Examiner is looking for. Each of the 'reasons for failure' and how to not get that box ticked.
Examiner's Questions The Examiner will ask questions at the start and end of the motorcycle test. Here they are.
Forthcoming changes to Motorcycle Licensing and Testing.
2nd European Driving Licence Directive From 2008, the motorcycle test will include a 'Brake & Swerve' maneouvre - which must be carried out on new off-road test facilities not yet built.
The extra 'Brake & Swerve' off-road testing An instructor's impression of the new off-road part of the test coming in in 2008. The figure-of-8, slalom, emergency stop, and an extra 'go round a corner, accelerate past 32mph, Swerve and Brake' will be part of The Motorcycle Test.
The New Motorcycle Test 2008 Article from Dexterity Training in Kent about the new test coming in in 2008. They've ridden the new off-road part - this is their impression of it.
News on the 2008 bike test From the D.S.A. (Only in some parts of the U.K. at this point in time as the new test centres are not yet built.)
Latest on the Theory Test It has just changed, Jan 2008. Quote........"For cars and motorcycles you'll be asked 50 questions in 57 minutes and the pass mark is 43 out of 50." Not the old 35 questions.
3rd European Driving Licence Directive From 2011, its going to get much harder to get a bike licence.
It is now too late to affect this, it is going to happen. Here is what it means to us.
All about the New Test Centres

The licences categories will change in 2011. Parts of the U.K. will be changing with the new regulations as and when each "Local" test centre is opened. This is causing lots of confusion for all.

 

Here's an article on Installing a Camera System on your bike - taping your students ? (Can we still call it 'taping', in these days of DVDs and SD cards....!)

Oh, BTW. This page is for your basic CBT, DAS, IAM stuff. Race Training is more likely on the Motorcycle Sport page.
