What manoeuvres will I need to demonstrate on the motorcycle module one?

The manoeuvres that need to be carried out at specific speeds will be tested in module 1 in a safe off-road environment, also known as a motorcycle manoeuvring area, which will take approximately 20 minutes.

On the day of the motorcycle module one test, you will be asked by the examiner to demonstrate your riding ability on either the left-hand or right-hand circuit.

Please note that the standard off-road layout may change due to local conditions on the casual sites.

You will be asked to perform the following:

  • wheel the moped or motorbike and use the stand
  • U-turn
  • do slalom and figure of eight
  • a slow ride
  • cornering and hazard avoidance
  • cornering and controlled stop
  • cornering and the emergency stop

At the end of your test, the examiner will give you the result and feedback from your test.

If you pass module one, you will receive a Test Pass Certificate which you MUST bring with you on the day of your module two test.

If you fail the module one test, you will not be permitted to take module two.

You will need to re-book module one and pass before you can progress to the next stage.

You have to choose a date at least 3 working days away.
