    Off the top of my head you cant do an A or A2 full test on it. needs to be 400cc+ for A2 and 600cc+ for A. Maybe you can do an A1 on it but I think thats up to 125:confused: Kinda shagged I think

    Nope they dont, if I were you i'd be getting a few lessons to warm you up and get a loan of a bike to do the full A.

    Not necessarily, you could just do a pretest with an instructor and then use that same school bike for the test. Then get whatever bike takes your fancy (within which ever license you get)
