1. Even though a person does not need any riding experience to take the compulsory basic training test, familiarizing yourself with the Highway Code is definitely advantageous.

2. The theory of CBT is essentially basic and is worth remembering to clear the practical tests. This is of course in the scenario where you would want to complete the CBT test in one go.

3. Obtaining full license will also give you freedom from riding with L plates forever. It also makes motorcycle insurance cheap.


4. Make sure that you book your CBT test at a DSA approved training body and look out for training centre that offers:
a. Flexible training, so that you can go through each element at your own convenient pace.
b. Riding gear as you’d probably won’t have your own motorcycle gloves and helmet at this point
c. A guaranteed pass

5. CBT was introduced to control the alarming number of accidents that new and old riders were contributing to. Since motorcycling is much more of an art than driving a car, training is essential for your and other’s safety. It also lets you gain on your riding skills, thereby making the whole task of riding a bike intensely relaxed, without the worry of losing control.

A person meeting all the standard requirements of each element proceeds to next until the course is completed, at which point the CBT instructor issues the candidate’s CBT certificate (DL196).

You can take the CBT course on a 50 cc or 125 cc automatic scooter or geared motorbike. It can either be of your own or you can hire one from where you are doing the training.

In CBT, exception has been given to those who have passed a comprehensive moped test since December 1990.


Holders of full car licence who have qualified after 1 February 2001 are also required to complete a CBT course before riding a two wheeler on the road. Contrary to a popular belief, the compulsory basic Training is not an exam, and there is no test. It is only a course of training that an individual is required to complete satisfactorily before riding a moped, scooter or motorbike. This basic training has proved to be a great success in achieving the aim it was designed for – improving road safety and lessened accidents involving two wheelers’ riders.


CBT requires a provisional licence holder to undergo the course of on-site and on-road training. On the completition of this course, they are issued a 'Certificate of Completion of an Approved Training Course' (DL196). This validates the provisional entitlement on their license and permits that to on their vehicle on the road, while displaying an ‘L’ on their number plate.
