This course is very similar to the STT course. You must be over 21 years of age, and hold an in date CBT certificate and a valid theory test certificate. With this course, you will be training and taking your test on a 500cc bike.

Once you have passed your test, you are entitled to ride any size bike you wish.

All motorcycle training can be booked through our staff at The licence centre, we act purely as a booking agent and any training will be carried out by TLC Motorcycle Training and Buget Biking, see our contact list for full information on TLC Motorcycle Training and Buget Biking.

The new motorcycle test went live on Monday 27th April 2009. It aims to improve the standard of road safety for motorcycle and moped riders. This user group has been identified as having a high risk of injury or death, this is particularly the case for young and inexperienced riders.

 Reporting for your practical test

You must bring the following items with you to the module one and module two part of your test. If you do not, the Driving Standards Agency may refuse to carry out the test and you may loose your fee:

• provisional licence and paper counterpart
• valid DL196
• valid theory test certificate
• valid module 1 test pass certificate when presenting for module 2 only

What will the test include?

The new test will be completed in two modules. The specified manoeuvres conducted at specific speeds will be tested in module 1 on safe off-road sites.

These specified manoeuvres are:

• at least two manoeuvres carried out at slow speed, including a slalom
• at least two manoeuvres carried out at higher speed, of which one exercise should be in second or third gear, at a speed of at least 30 km/h (approx. 19 mph) and one exercise avoiding an obstacle at a minimum speed of 50 km/h (approx. 32 mph)
• at least two braking manoeuvres, including an emergency brake at a minimum speed of 50 km/h (approx. 32 mph)

On the day of your module 1 test, you will be asked by the examiner to demonstrate your riding ability on either the left-hand or right-hand circuit. The standard off-road layout may change because of local conditions on the casual sites.

If you demonstrate riding skills of a dangerously incompetent level during module 1, you will not be allowed to take module 2.

If you pass module 1 you will receive a test pass certificate which you must bring with you when you take module 2.

Module 2 of the test is made up of the eyesight test, road safety questions and at least 30 minutes of road riding. Road riding will cover a variety of road and traffic conditions and will also include normal stops, hill and angle starts.
