"Test" centre?
If you mean training centre, I'd give them a wide swerve at at least 50kph. You're stuck on a 125cc (making no more than 11kW and no more than 0.1kW/kg) until you're 19. Sorry, no exceptions[*].
Government source.
You can rock up and do your A1 tests on your own bike, without any training. Importantly, this starts the clock on your 2 year "new driver" probationary period during which your license will be automatically revoked if you get 6 points. Riding as much of that out on a 125 as possible might be to your benefit.
There's nothing particularly hard about the tests, and plenty of people pass then without training.
