A2 Motorcycle Licence

You must be a minimum of 19 years old or over, have already passed compulsory basic training, the D.V.S.A. motorcycle theory test and then must take both Modules 1 & 2 of your practical test on a motorcycle that qualifies for A2 entitlement. Module 1 will be carried out at a M.P.T.C (Multi Purpose Test Centre), once this has been passed you are then able to take the on road part (Module 2) this will then give you the A2 Motorcycle entitlement. ART uses Brand new Honda CB500F's and Yamaha MT-07's that are restricted to 35 kW (47 Bhp). Remember that if you want to practice for your test on this size bike, you can only do so if accompanied by a professionally qualified D.S.A. approved motorcycle instructor, not just your mate with a full licence.

What can I ride at 19

Have a look at some of the most popular A2 bikes and A2 scooters.

When you have held this entitlement for a minimum of two years (21 if you took the A2 at 19) you can then upgrade to a full motorcycle licence by one of the following two options:

1/ At present take another D.V.S.A. test, Mod 1 and Mod 2. You will NOT have to take C.B.T. 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.
