What is the CBT course?
Compulsory Basic Training is a programme of instruction, safe practice and assessment for new riders. You must be at least 16 to ride a 49cc moped and 17 to ride a 125cc motorcycle. Do not worry if you have never ridden before: CBT is aimed at complete novices.
The course includes at least one full day of classroom and practical training in a small group of two or three riders per trainer. Not sure if riding is for you? Try a one-hour CBT taster session first.
Before your course, you might find it helpful to register for DVSA RideFree, the free online learning that gives you a head start on the classroom part of CBT.

CBT questions
How long does a CBT take?
A CBT with Betta Biker is at least one full day. There is no pass or fail; you finish when your trainer is happy you are safe to ride on your own. If you need more time, CBT completion (up to 5 more hours) is £160.
Do I need my own bike or kit for CBT?
No. A bike and riding kit (helmet, CE armoured jacket, waterproof over-trousers, gloves, hi-vis and boots if you need them) are supplied. You can also train on your own road-legal bike: it needs L plates, and you must show its tax, insurance and MOT. Unless you are renewing a valid CBT, you will need to have it delivered and collected.
How long is a CBT certificate valid?
A CBT certificate is valid for 2 years. You need to pass your full motorcycle test or retake CBT before it expires to keep riding.
