where to start

CBT TEST

 

Virtually everyone who intends to ride a motorcycle on the road must complete a Compulsory Basic Training (CBT) course. The only exception to this rule is if you plan to ride a 50cc moped and you obtained your full car license before February 2001. However, for all other motorcycles, regardless of engine size, completing a CBT is mandatory.

According to the law, all new riders must successfully complete the CBT course before they are legally permitted to ride a moped or motorcycle on public roads. This training ensures that riders have the necessary skills and knowledge to operate their vehicles safely and confidently.

Moped Riding Regulations for New Motorcyclists

For new motorcyclists eager to start their journey on a moped, there are specific regulations to be aware of:

  • 125cc Moped Test: New riders have the option to take their test on a 125cc moped. However, passing this test will result in receiving a restricted license.
  • CBT Completion: Upon completing the Compulsory Basic Training (CBT), riders are entitled to operate a moped with an engine size of 125cc or less. However, it’s mandatory to display L plates on both the front and rear of the moped at all times.
  • Restricted License: Riders who opt for the 125cc moped test will receive a restricted license. This means they are limited to riding mopeds with an engine size of 125cc or less until they pass a full motorcycle test.
  • Strong Recommendation: While completing the CBT allows riders to legally operate a moped, we strongly advise new riders to pursue further testing beyond the CBT. Obtaining a full motorcycle license provides comprehensive training and ensures safer riding practices on public roads.

At [Your Motorcycle Training School], we prioritize rider safety and encourage all new riders to undergo thorough training and testing. Our experienced instructors are dedicated to providing comprehensive guidance to ensure you become a confident and responsible motorcyclist. Start your journey with us today!
