DAS (Direct Access Scheme)
After completing the CBT a trainee can acquire their full motorcycle licence through this scheme.
If the trainee is under 21 years of age training will be carried out on a 125cc motorcycle. On passing all parts of the test, the trainee will be restricted to a 33bhp motorcycle for 2 years.
However if the trainee is over 21 years of age the training can be carried out on a 500cc motorcycle and the trainee will be allowed to ride any size of motorcycle after passing all parts of the test. Anyone over 21 can also choose to follow the restricted access course and do their training on a 125cc machine if they feel happier with this, or if the instructor feels it is a better option!
