New rider learning and licence advice?
Right here goes. Sure some folks on here will know of the top of there head. My next door neighbour wants to start riding bikes. She is 27. What's the path she needs to take. Can she ride a 125 without any tests or will she need first part. Does she need to do a theory first. Any help apreciated.

Re: New rider help.
I suggesst she approach a local riding school, do a CBT with the intention of doing her DAS if she enjoys the CBT.
Obviously she need to do her theory test in between

Re: New rider help.
DAS is Direct access (skips the A2, A1 and then A test). Means your not restricted in any means

Re: New rider help.
DAS is direct access, basically you need CBT + Theory then you take MOD1, (low speed maneuvering/swerve test/emergency stop) and MOD2 (persued by instructor), both need to be done on a bike of at least 595cc and at least 53.6 BHP (40KW) of power.
