Not that i have an auto license, but if I did what would be the rule on getting a auto/semi-auto bike like a aprilia mana? Is it just the lack of clutch that makes it ok? or would it have to be kept out of semi auto mode? or would it be not available on an auto license?

Is there such a thing as an auto licence for bikes? I know there is a moped licence, but thought that only applied to small bikes...

My mate's got an A license with code 78.

And in answer to my own question:
Yes it is acceptable...

Hi

Just to confirm the above, the clutchless manual Renault Clio we had could be driven on a licence for an automatic.

All the best

Keith

The moped licence has nothing to do with automatic/manual.

If you did your bike test on an automatic you will not be allowed to ride geared bikes.

No, it's just 'anything with a clutch' that you're not allowed to ride/drive on an auto license.
