You will probably need to take a theory test before taking your practical test. You
will not need to take a theory test if you already hold a full licence for another
category of motorcycle or have passed a moped test since 1 July 1996.
The theory test Certificate is valid for 2 years and the practical test Must be taken
within this period otherwise the theory test will have to be taken again.
The test is based on many different aspects of motorcycling not just the Highway
Code.
The theory test is two parts:
* Part One - You have to answer 50 multiple choice questions you must get 43 correct within 57 minutes
* Part Two - (Hazard Awareness) You are shown 15 short video sections containing
hazards the quicker you spot the hazard the more points you score.
The whole thing is computer based and easy to use. There are headphones provided
so the questions can be presented accuratly for anyone with reading difficulties.
We strongly suggest that you purchase a copy of the theory test book for motorcycles
before attempting this test. If you book with us we will give you access to our
vast library of learning aids CD-ROMs and videos.
