Standard (Cat A2)& Light Licence (Cat A1) Training

125CC TRAINING

A small capacity motorbike is great fun to ride and is often a comfortable, sensible and safe way to learn, how to ride. Rest assured that your safety and enjoyment of learning are foremost on our minds, as this can be the most apprehensive time for a beginner that is why our training is individual based. 125cc training and tests are available in automatic as well as geared bikes.

125cc Automatic training

Automatic motorbikes are becoming more popular day by day, and offer an alternative way to travel rather than the more common geared bike side of motorcycling. These bikes are ideal for getting across town or a pleasant day out in the country. We have 100cc and 125cc automatic motorbikes available at the school for you.
