How to get my motorcycle licence

The process of obtaining your much-anticipated motorcycle licence varies from state to state. Depending on your experience level, the first introductory course will help you pass the practical component and receive your Learner’s Permit. The second step is to pass your pre-provisional Red P plate practical exam, and optional courses cover more advanced skills such as defensive riding. If you already have an overseas motorcycle licence, you will only need to sit the practical session of the Learner’s course. To learn more about what steps you need to take, select your state below.

FAQs

How long does it take to learn to drive a motorcycle?

The length of time it takes to learn to drive a motorcycle differs depending on various factors, such as your learning journey and which Australian state you are undertaking your training in. You don’t even need to own a bike already! By the end of our Learner Permit training, you’ll know all the essentials to keep practising on your own until you feel ready to go on the road. Browse our different locations to find the course that best suits your needs, and let us help you stay upright.

How can I pass my motorcycle test easily?

While knowing how to ride a bicycle might help your sense of balance and understanding how clutch and gears work is beneficial to operating a manual motorbike, neither is a prerequisite. In NSW/ACT If our experienced trainers determine you need more practice before passing the practical component of your L-plates test, they will ask you to come back for complimentary one-on-one sessions. Alternatively, you can book a private motorcycle training lesson or a Learn To Ride, Head Start Course to get ahead. Our one-on-one lessons can also help you perfect your skills before sitting your P-plates test.
