    Next step, call an instructor to do your IBT with. You will have to ride a bike that is taxed and insured when doing your IBT, so best bet is to do it on a school bike.

    Nothing stopping you getting your own bike sorted too, even if insurance is mad expensive.

    For IBT, you are better off having your own protective gear (boots, gloves, helmet, clothing) but some schools have that too.

    you have to do the ibt on an A bike so over 50kw over 595cc. being over 24 allows you to go straight for the A license, but if you were to do the IBT on a smaller bike then you wouldn't be allowed on a big bike..

    Yes, the bike must be >600 to qualify for A.
