600cc motorbike age???

Question

in the UK after riding a 50cc scooter from 16-17, are you then allowed to buy and use a 600c motorbike with further testing at the age of 17?

Answer 1

No.

You must pass a test on a motorcycle with an engine capacity of between 51cc and 125cc first.

You will then be limited to engines with a power output of no more than 33bhp (11kw) for 2 years.  The engine capacity does not matter, it's the power output that does.

Answer 2

no you must first pass test on 125 and then ride for 2 years before going on to 600 but after passing said test you can ride 600 IF IT IS RESTRICTED

Answer 3

tou have to do the direct accsess course....actully passing your test on a big bike[600cc plus]...then u can ride anything.

Answer 4

After you have done your CBT you can do a A2 course which allows you to ride any motorcycle, but it has to be ristricted to 33 bhp then after 2years you can take it off. Hope this helps

Answer 5

It's complex & depends on the power output of the bike - see here;
