This sort of matters because if it were direct access then your theory would have expired and you'd have to do it again. As it is, you can just go and do the tests after your 2 year purgatory.

Outlook is unclear. The 1999 Regulations and 2012 Amendment only talks about "Minimum ages for holding or obtaining licences", in your case "the age of 21 in a case where a person has, for a period of not less than two years, held a full licence which authorises the driving of A2 motorcycles"
(actual quotes, not Tef"quotes")
However, I can't see any training school taking a gamble on it until you've passed the magic two year mark.
Are you going via a school then? I know you want a spanky new R6RRrrarrar but it's perfectly viable to bag something like an old Bandit or Fazer that's natively A, but A2 restrictable, ride up and do your tests on that yourself. Fiddle under the seat "Yeah, yeah, removed the throttle restrictor", win. BodyGuard managed it.

Why not just turn up at the test centre on your A2 compliant restricted bike even if it's actually restricted I would still turn up at the test centre on it and do the tests. If the examiner asks just tell him you deresticted it in the car park and pull a couple of washers out of your pocket to make it look extra convincing.
I did the above slapped a couple of Loser plates on around the corner from the centre and put a faggots hi vis on (they like this a lot). Passed MOD 1 and 2 in the same day and rode away with a full A license grinning like a cheshire cat because I had just 'done' the system.

Edit - Just realised you've only got a 300 in which case either training school or buy an A A2 compliant bike. |
