How much does it cost in total to get a full motorcycle lic
 
How much does it cost in total to get a full motorcycle licence in the UK ?

Including training ?

- it's for my Boss he's 35 and has a German Car licence.

I don't know because i made mine in Austria which cost me £500 altogether.

Thanks for your help.

Ring around some local riding schools and find out, seems to vary greatly depending where in the country you are

cbt: something like £125
4 day direct access course: £500ish
Theory test: errrmmm... can't remember but somewhere between £25 - £50

Did mine at a bike school in Chelmsford. Can't think if I've missed anything here...

Wow you paid tooooo much

CBT £70
3days DAS £240
plus a wasted £50 to insure against further instruction fees if I failed my test

I paid 440 (ish)

5 days intensive inc. CBT and test (no theory as I already had my car license)

I don't know if I paid too much, but I passed first time from having ridden one or two times in my life. So I was happy!

in 2003 I paid about £600 in total, including:

1. Theory/Haz Perception Test
2. CBT
3. 2 days instruction on a 125cc bike
4. 2 days instruction on a 500cc bike
5. a few hours instruction before the test
6. Practical Test.

All bike hire was included, as was all admin, contact with test centres, test booking, etc.

This was for someone like me who'd never riden a bike of any sort ever.

When was this? Not in the last couple of years, I think :lol:

All depends on his level of experience to date, but somewhere in the region of £400 to £600 should probably cover it.

Many thanks!

£600 in total is a good estimate.

Also, the price may depend on how many attempts you need to pass
the test. My instructor was nice and continued training me for free
after I failed my first two attempts.
