Answer 5

Definately a full motorcycle licence (A1 orA2)

To the answerer above: No, you can't take a full licence holder as a passenger, motorcycle instructor's dont sit on the back to teach you!

Answer 6

Full licence, although I think you can carry someone who holds a full licence as they could be coaching you.

Answer 7

TO TAKE A PASSENGER ON YOUR MOPED YOU NEED A FULL MOPED LICENCE

Moped provisional licences

You can only hold a provisional moped licence if you are at least 16 years old. It entitles you to ride a moped on the road as a learner with L-plates (D-plates in Wales) but you must not carry a pillion passenger or go on a motorway.

Your provisional licence is only valid when you have the DL 196 certificate issued on completion of compulsory basic training (CBT) by an approved training body (ATB).

A CBT certificate obtained on a moped is also valid for motorcycles once the rider has reached the age of 17 years and has the necessary licence.

If you want to ride a moped on the road without displaying L-plates you must take and pass a theory and practical driving test.

If you have a car licence...

If you obtained your full car licence before 1 February 2001 you are automatically entitled to ride a moped without L-plates (D-plates in Wales).

If you obtained a full car licence after 1 February 2001 you must first complete a CBT course and obtain a DL 196 certificate to validate your entitlement.

SO NO YOU WILL NO LONGER GET A FULL MOPED LICENCE IF YOU PASS YOUR CAR TEST

Answer 8

Not sure of the current rules but you used to be allowed to carry a passenger who held a full license.    Why on earth do you want to carry such a load with only a 50cc motor?

Answer 9

You need to have a FULL Motorbike Licence, and then I think you need to be driving for a full year after you pass.  Car Licences ONLY cover you for cars.
