Kickstart Motorcycle Training run CBT, A2, and DAS courses in Bristol and Clevedon

This is the course to take if you want to ride a large motorcycle, ( you will need to be 21 or over ).

This course is a lot of fun and in our opinion is the ideal way to get into motorcycling. You will start off on a 125 cc motorcycle and progress onto the larger bikes when sensible. Starting on a 125cc means you won’t feel intimidated by the weight and power of a 500cc motorcycle and we can teach you all the basics easily. Once on a larger bike you will soon get used to the extra weight and power of a “proper” motorcycle and we can build up your skills and confidence levels. So you will  easily pass the Module One and Two tests.

Need cheap transport ? Happy to ride a 50 or 125 on L plates ? Or want to gain experience on two wheels before taking the motorcycle tests then you will need a Compulsory Basic Training course.

Training is the important bit, it is not a test, I mention this because some people come in really stressed thinking I must get this right first time or I won't pass. It's really not like that at all, it is a fun day learning new skills, but you will have a head start if you have read the Highway Code  and have a look at our sister web site Learn to Ride

You can take a CBT at either of our centres, Keynsham or Clevedon.

You must have provisional valid licence for the bike you are going to ride and you must be able read a standard number plate from at least 20.5 metres.

Come suitably dressed, we can loan jackets gloves and helmets, but strongly suggest that you have you own equipment.

You can take a CBT at either of our centres, Keynsham or Clevedon.
