CBT Test and CBT Training Courses Wembley park

Motorcycle training courses are there to enhance your driving abilities and ensure you know how to handle a bike before taking it to the open roads. You should search for a course that’s suited to your current skill level and for some, that means going back to basics. These courses are there to help and will make a huge difference in your driving know-how. Going through several MCT courses can be useful to boost your confidence and ensure you’re a safe driver too.

Forget the fashion show, you need to be wearing something practical, comfortable, and safe. For long-distance motorcycle trips, you should always wear riding pants, ankle boots, a riding jacket, and a full-face helmet. You should buy clothes in the closest size possible, as baggy or loose clothing will flap around in the wind and cause you disturbance and distraction. When you’re fully geared up you may feel heavy and awkward at first, but you will have a much better motorcycle trip knowing you are safe.

Besides, the heaviness of your bike is also important for motorcycle protection. If your ride feels too heavy you will struggle to control it on the road. Therefore, opt for a slightly lighter motorcycle.

Before you can even begin riding on the road you must undertake a Compulsory Basic Training or CBT course. This provides the foundation for new riders to learn the basics of motorbike riding. Despite the CBT course not involving a pass/fail element, assessors must analyze whether a rider is capable of riding on their own.

Never forget your gut feeling when buying a used bike, regardless of whether you are an expert or not, you should be able to tell how genuine the person selling it is.

The last form of motorbike training is an A license (unrestricted motorbikes). This is the final test for those looking to ride any size motorbike. To be able to do this, you have to have an A2 license for two years and aged 21+ and have completed a practical test before proceeding further or going through the direct access route at which you need to be 24+ and need to complete both a practical and theory test, you can then ride any motorbike.

The course typically lasts 3-4 hours and covers many of the aspects your original CBT course covers including on-site and on-road riding. If your current CBT is still in date, and your bike is insured and road legal it is possible to complete the CBT renewal on your own bike.
