Your CBT certificate is valid for only 2 years, and has some restrictions which will apply to most people:
If you do not pass your motorcycle theory test, and full practical test within 2 years, you will be required to complete another CBT if you wish to continue riding your scooter / moped / motorcycle.
- You are not permitted to use motorways at any time

The assessment will consist of your instructor showing and explaining to you how to control the motorbike/scooter in a controlled environment. You will then need to evidence that you have learned and understood what your instructor has explained to you. You must continue to evidence your understanding, throughout the day to allow the instructor to progress you through the 5 elements of CBT.
