    hi guys, just a quick question. im quite interested in getting a motor bike.
    i have a full car licence for the last 4 years and i want to get a bike licence. do you have to do a theory test again or is it a case of going in to the motor office and just paying a fee to get it added to my licence.

    also i am a little confused about the power out put restrictions, i would like to get something with a bit of poke. what sort of bikes are available??

    thanks guys

    If you intend to use a bike with an engine size of less than 50cc then your car licence should cover it. Anything bigger and you have to do the theory test and do a bike driving test.

    you can get a 125cc license but you have to have that for 1year before going above 125cc

    u got to sit the theory test for a learner permit for an A motorbike license,then your restricted to 25kw(33hp),which means any bike with that power output or any bike restricted to 25kw(either mechanically or electronically),then after you pass your bike test you'll still be restricted for 2 years to 25kw
