Old rules still apply as long as you pass your test before 2013.

4 Year wait?

As far as I know that doesn't come into play till 2013.

How old are you?

As long as you pass your A2 test before 2013 (CBT, Theory, Mod1 and Mod2) then you are on your merry way.

If you're under 21 when you pass that you will be restricted to 33BHP.

Eh? So you turn 17 soon right.. If you don't pass by 2013 then you are shafted as far as I can see.

By reading your first post I assume that you are 17 later this year?

You can take your A2 test at 17 but I believe you will be restricted to 33hp for 2 years. But you'll need to act quick before the new rules come in.

Good Luck

Hi, I've just seen your PM.

Yes, you're good to go. Sit (and pass) the "standard" tests on a 125cc bike as soon as you can once you hit 17. Really, don't hang around, there's going to be loads of people trying to cram in a pass before they get shagged next January.

Once you pass, you'll have an A license that lets you ride anything as long as it doesn't make more than 25kW (naturally or restricted) and not more than 0.16kW/kg (which really only rules out a few very light offroad bikes).

2 years after you pass, that restricted just vanishes, no more tests, and you can ride anything you like.
