Your route to a Full Motorcycle Licence

After passing your CBT and Theory Test (not necessarily in that order - it's up to you), you need to take the practical bike tests.

Following on from the information you give us regarding your road experience etc., we will work out with you the best way forward with your training course and allocate test and training dates to suit you. This can be an intensive course, or in order to cause as little disruption to your usual life, fitted into your free time as much as possible, we offer weekend training sessions alongside the usual weekday training although tests are currently only available on weekdays. Call or email for a personal quote without obligation.

Which test you take depends on your age and what you want to ride. If you are between 19-23 you can take an A2 restricted test (below 46.6 bhp). 24 or held a restricted licence for 2 years means you can ride a motorcycle of any size once you have passed the unrestricted A  category test.   

If you are 17 or over you can take th A1 test (125cc only) or just want to carry a passenger on a small commuter you only need take the light bike test which give you full entitlement up to 125cc.

Take a look at the DSA guide to practical bike test click here.

For a guide to suitable test clothing click here. Your test will not go ahead and you will forfiet your test fee if you are not suitably clothed.

Module one test is the off-road handling ability test and module two is the on-road test. Both must be passed within the two year  validation period of your theory test. Remember that your module 1 pass certificate is linked to your theory test certificate. If your theory test expires then you will need to re-sit both the theory test and the module one test.

If a retest is required you must leave 3 clear working days between module one tests and 10 clear working days between module two tests.

The Secret of our Success

First and foremost Pete, our chief instructor, holds the highest qualification currently available in instructional techniques and roadcraft - THE RoSPA ADVANCED DIPLOMA*. This was gained for his advanced training ability demonstrated to the highest standard in both the classroom and in-car environment, (we highlight this point because it is now possible to take this qualification on a motorcycle not then available when Pete qualified). These qualifications combined with his extensive training experience not only allow him to train motorcycle test candidates to the highest standards but also allows him to pass on his wealth of abilities to the motorcycle instructors who train and work alongside him. (For a full list of Pete''s qualifications see his profile on our instructors page).

Secondly, Ideal do not operate a "one size fits all" policy. Training is individually tailored to build on your ability and experience. This flexible approach allows us to design a training programme that fits you perfectly whist keeping the cost to you to a minimum - hence our impressive results.

* RoSPA Advance Diploma is recognised by the Driving Vehicle Standards Agency as equivalent to the Fleet Trainer qualification. This qualification is available to DVSA instructors seeking continued professional development (CPD is actively encouraged by the DVSA). Training is offered to all instructors of PCV LGV MOTORCYCLE and CAR to attain this high level of competence (for details please refer to our instructor training page).

And last but not least, our team of dedicated professional instructors, most of whom are already qualified over and above the basic motorcycle instructors qualifications (see instructor profiles for details) work hard to make our training courses successful and enjoyable and continue to increase their own qualifications in order to offer the very best training experience possible.
