As of January 1st, 2019, the requirements for the full ‘A’ licence test changed.
THE DVLA changed the rules around which bikes you can ride when taking your full, ‘A’ licence, motorcycle test.
Previous legislation allowed the full UK ‘A’ licence to be taken on any motorcycle that has a capacity of at least 595cc and a total power output of at least 40kW (54bhp). As of the 1st January, 2019, new rules mean the bike used for the same test must have a kerb weight of at least 180kg and a 50kW (67bhp) total power output.
After this date, any motorcycles that don’t fall in line with the new regulations will not be accepted for the test. See below the full list of the bikes.
