BEGINNER’S COURSE

Also commonly known as “Introduction to Motorcycling” is a course designed for the very beginner, who has never ridden a motorcycle, scooter or moped before and do not wish to jump straight into the CBT (Compulsory Basic Training) Course.

However, as it’s also a course tailored to an individual’s skill, this course has the advantage of having a 1-to-1 ratio or a 2-to-1 maximum training ratio, that is, 1 Dedicated Motorcycle Instructor per trainee or per 2 trainees.

Course highlights:

If you are a complete beginner/novice in regards to riding a motorcycle/scooter and if your EXPECTATION is to complete your Compulsory Basic Training (CBT) in one day, then we strongly suggest you start with a Beginners Course (commonly known as ITM – Introduction to Motorcycling) or at least 1-2 hours of Private Motorcycling Lessons prior to your CBT. By doing that you will have a better idea of what to expect and you will also give us a chance to initially assess your skills, in order for us to advise you how to proceed.​​

Compulsory Basic Training: CBT

Our starter course, covering the Compulsory Basic Training you need to ride a motorcycle up to 125cc (no theory test necessary). All instructors have been assessed to our high standards, and you will learn on the latest Honda bikes. If successful, you’ll leave with a CBT certificate. Anyone over 17 years old can then ride a motorcycle up to 125cc like the MSX125 while 16 year olds can ride a moped like the NSC50R.
