  • It’s that time again, another 2 years have flown by and I need to resit my CBT (Compulsory Basic Training) Day in order to continue riding my scooter.
    Back to the excellent Harley’s Motorcycle Training in Edinburgh for top tuition and plenty of laughs too.

    I’ve just bought a 125 and will have to book my first cbt, I’m really nervous about it already and I don’t even pick the bike up until tomorrow. 😅

    As a seasoned biker(Ducati/Guzzi etc etc) i watch your videos based on my intent to buy an SRGT 125 to trailer behind my VW California, I’ve found them invaluable and they have convinced me to purchase one… my only disappointment is that you may decide to give up ‘biking’ in favour of public transport…. Please don’t, your content is unbiased and informative.. perhaps you should take a leap forward and continue reviewing motorcycles? post CBT because I think you are very good at it ! Just my thoughts 😮

      @@hampo9558 Hi, thanks very much indeed for your kind remarks, really appreciated. I’ve certainly no immediate plans to ditch the scooter so hopefully I’ll be able to keep the videos going for a while yet. Best of luck with your SRGT, they are great machines.

    Accidentally deleted my comment when trying to edit it, whoops! Was going to ask why you didn't get a 125 license, but then I reached the part of the video where you mentioned the bus pass.
    For anybody else on a CBT, you can take your license on your 125 if you don't fancy a bigger bike (and paying lots of money for lessons/renting a bike for the test). You still need to pay insurance, but your current provider can normally provide that for a small fee. Works out slightly more than renewing the CBT, but you only need the license once.
    I'm thinking of doing that next year when mine expires. Also if you've got lots of cash you can get some pretty nippy electrics on a 125 license, like a Zero S.

    What if you had failed?
    You should do the test. Less money in the long run and I bet the insurance is cheaper afterwards.

      It’s almost impossible to “fail” a CBT. You’d have to be completely incompetent. I’ve been on a few CBT’s and only ever seen one person who wasn’t allowed to continue due to their inability to ride.

      @@scottishzoomer I know it is impossible to fail a non-test. That is why I said it........I am just wondering why not go for the full 125cc licence? Insurance would be cheaper as I said.

    £175 is ridiculous 😞 How much do you pay for fully comp insurance mate ??

    It's just that they can see that after two years I can get some more fucking money out of you that's it. It's nothing about road safety. It's just about like you said getting more fucking money.
