A1 Light Motorcycle Test
This test must be taken on a 115cc - 125cc motorcycle of not more than 11kW ( 14.6 Bhp) and be capable of at least 55mph.

Once you have passed this test you are able to ride a lightweight motorcycle of up to 125cc, carry passengers and ride on motorways.

Get rid of the L-Plates and never have to take a CBT again.

A1 motorcycles and scooters.


When you have held this entitlement for a minimum of two years (or age 19) you can then either upgrade to a standard A2 motorcycle licence by one of the following two options:

1/ At present take another DSA test, Mod 1 and Mod 2. (you will NOT have to take CBT or theory test again)

2/ By 2022 hopefully take a 7 hour training upgrade course, this will hopefully be carried out by us, but as yet no answers available from the D.V.S.A.

Example cost between £700 - £1000 for everything. Unique, guaranteed price, once we have seen you ride!
