I think some of our panel need to take a look at the licencing laws!

We currently have a filter in place for some companies that only allows :
people over 17 to ride a 125cc bike.
people over 21 to ride any bike.

We are going purely on CC, as we don't have power output on our site.
So we are assuming that if your 16, you've got a 50cc bike.
If your up to 20, your only on a 125cc bike, and after that, you can ride anything.

Does this not sound correct to you?
Thanks
Brett
No, please dont assume

CBT can be taken at 16yrs & ride 50cc bike
CBT can be taken at 16+ too (many here have done that)
Full test can be taken at 17 plus.
Direct access can be taken at 21.

If the full test is taken at any age under 21 yrs, you are restricted to 33bhp for 2 years from date of test.
Therefore, a 17 or 18 year old, can pass their full test, ride anything (often choosing viffer or cbr 400) LEGALLY, PROVIDED it is restricted - and after 2 years (at 19 or 20) can ride any machine they like (or can afford)

Hope this helps?
