Direct and Accelerated Access

Riders age 21 or over, or those who reach 21 before their 2-year restriction ends, have other options.

Direct Access:

After taking C.B.T. and the Theory Test the practical test may be taken on a motorcycle with a power output of at least 35kw.
A pass allows you to ride any size of bike. All or part of the C.B.T. course may be taken on either a learner bike or a large bike.
You may practise for the practical test on bikes larger than the learner bike specification provided:
You are accompanied at all times by an approved instructor on another bike and in radio contact.
You wear fluorescent or reflective clothing and follow all other provisional licence restrictions.

Accelerated Access:

Riders who reach the age of 21, while still within the 2-year period where they are restricted to maximum 25kw machines, but who wish to ride larger bikes need to pass a further test on a motorcycle of at least 35kw.
They may practise on bikes over 25kw under the same practise conditions for Direct Access riders.
You will revert to learner status while practising (on a motorcycle greater than 25kw) although test failure will not affect your existing licence.

Hi - just wondering about the accelerated access, is the test the same as the normal practical exam just on a bigger bike? and also how much roughly does this course cost? thanks for any further information!

Thanks,

Kaine!

I would not worry Kaine, your 2 years are nearly up

You can then ride anything you want
