Requirements

You must:

• Hold a provisional or full UK licence
• Have catagory 'a' listed on the counterpart (paper) of your licence
• Have passed a motorcycle theory test
• Hold a current CBT certificate
• Be 17 years old or over

Once you have satisfied these conditions you can take your restricted access test. This will allow you to:

• Ride a 125cc bike up to 33bhp
• Ride any size bike as long as it is fitted with a restrictor kit limiting the power to 33bhp
• You can remove the 'L' plates
• Travel on motorways (as long as your bike meets the legal criteria)
• Carry a pillion passanger

Training

The training is usually carried out on our Yamaha YBR 125cc bikes but can be carried out on your own bike as long as it is roadworthy and meets all the legal requirements.

RiverView carries out training 7 days a week and can arrange training to suit your work schedule. We even carry out training in the evenings during the summer months.

Ideally the training is undertaken as a course as over the years we have discovered this to be the easiest, quickest and safest way to learn. Each training day commences at 9am and finishes around 3.30/4.00pm.

Restricted Access (125) Test

There are 2 modular tests to take:

• MOD 1 - 11 manoeuvres at a DSA test station
• MOD 2 - 40-45 minute road ride test

We have pre-booked tests at Kirkham, Blackburn, Blackpool, Atherton and St Helens.
