price check on 3 day plus test course ?

[flearider]

what would you say is a good price for 3 days plus test ..
just been quoted £550 which i thinks a bit steep was looking at 5 days for that money ..
yes it's up north so not as dear as south and london ..

[unitynotsocri...]

if its got accomidation and its north of Manchester I'd say its a good one.

Around 400 too 650 depending on accommidation.

I was quoted £390 for 3day, including test fees. That's from Williams Motorcycle Training in Bolton. (If you're in the Manchester kind of 'north'.)

[Wonko The Sane]

I was quoted that for a place in Maidenhead back in the summer, so before the changes in license

Focus Rider Training in Bolton who I did my tests through are now quoting £499 which has gone up slightly from before the new categories came in.

Highly recommended.


Is that the price including doing the CBT?


I'd recommend doing theory test before booking as you can't take your tests without it.

Sounds like the tests are coming down in price from when I did the DAS a million years ago.

Is that 3 days training, plus a test day, and including the test costs (£90.50)?

(550 - 90) / 4 = £115 a day.

At 200 working days a year (they'll lose some due to cancellations, sickness and weather), that's a gross income of about £23K. Subtract bike and equipment purchase, maintenance and repair costs, fuel and insurance.

How little do you expect trainers to work for?

[Bikermice]

If you have family in London or near, my old training school is doing an excellent deal:

3 days - £199 (got to add the test fees tho)

Any other days have 25% off or buy one get one free if you do it on the same day with someone you know, so in essence:

1 Person 4 day with test fees = £474.50
2 people doing it together on the same days, 4 day and test fees = £349.50

good school too.

search them - camrider, Hendon
