Start with age and licence entitlement
Motorcycle routes depend on age, existing entitlement and the category of machine. Use official guidance for your jurisdiction before choosing a course.
CBT is a training course with its own conditions. It is not interchangeable with a full motorcycle licence.
Compare the whole package
Record the bike provided, protective equipment, fuel, insurance excess, theory support, module fees, instructor-to-trainee ratio and retake arrangements.
Confirm where off-road and on-road sessions take place and how you travel between them.
Check the training body
Use the appropriate official motorcycle training finder. Statistics for Module 1 and Module 2 are separate outcomes; combining them into one advertised personal pass probability is misleading.
