You must hold one of the following:

1. A full motorbike licence (AM, A1, A2 or A); or
2. A full driving licence issued 1st February 2001 (This allows you to ride the X-Tra or the Senda); or
3. A provisional licence or full driving licence issued before 1st February 2001 plus a CBT (this allows you to ride the Ultra as well as the X-Tra or Senda)

Unless you hold an AM, A1, A2 or A licence you will need a CBT.  However, if you passed your driving test before 1st February 2001 you will be able to ride an X-Tra or Senda without a CBT, but you will still need a CBT to ride an Ultra

We recommend that you take your CBT with an MCIA approved training school.
