Not worth the risk as far as I can see. Easy to pass and keeps you leagle. Get caught without it and your in the do-do. Even if you ride a scoot reg as a 50cc but with a larger motor in, (naughty in it's self! Tut tut) I'd still do it just to keep it right! Get caught with a 125 in a 50 frame, get a slap on the wrist and a preducer, and re-register as a 125 Get caught with the above and no cbt test, your getting points! Don't wanna sound like I'm preaching, but scooter riders get a bad enough rap from cops an the other road users, and we gotta do what we can to chainge peoples attitudes towards us.
every so often cops have a clamp down on riders,u cant fail a cbt so its worth it,if u get a producer u just wander in with it n show em then ur right if not- a £200 fine 3-6points,poss no bike
They are also now allowed to take away your darling little transport and crush it!!! Do your cbt mate i got 7 points on my licence before i even passed my test and insurance companys didnt want to know me i was getting insurance quotes of 3 grand on a 1.1 vauxhall nova and to top it all off i had them points until i was 22 years old i was screwed for 5 years!! Take it from me bud its really really not worth it! What hapens if your riding along one day and a mother with a pushchair steps out and you mow em both down!!! Your totally fucked then thats you behind bars no questions asked!!
ye i wouldnt bother without cbt, its piss easy n only takes a few hours out your day to be legit, take it from me lol, ive had 3 driving bans fro driving cars with no license, im currently disqualified from obtaining a full license untill i pass the extended test, but that dont apply to provisionals+cbt
as everyone else said, CBT is the way forward, although i read somewhere that 30% of typical chav teeagers dont bother with CBT's obviously that fact aint aimed at anyone on here, they think that beacause a CBT dosent go onto a data base they cant get caught, i know MANY people that have done this, me myself, have always been legal and proud of it
I live in northern Ireland and about two weeks ago they brought CBT here , if you had a provisonal licence before two weeks ago, you have got one year to pass the CBT test, but now if u want to buy a moped and get insured etc u have to provide a CBT test , you all prob heard about it , but this is proof that the government or w,e wants to cut down on moped deaths/crashes , my point is just get it down, or infact get a bike test done , over the years it works out cheaper and a motorbike testing company told me that,
rite do u need paper couterpart to do cbt as my dog chewed up so dont have it is there a way of jus gettin a new paper part for free help please
Cant you just request one from the DVLA? Im waiting to do my CBT now, but before that had to wait untill i changed the address on my license. Hopefully in a week or 2 i will be doing mine. Its not really worth riding without one as everyone has said. Goodluck
i doing my cbt next week i waiting to get glasses because they do a test to see if you can see a licence plate reg 65feet i think it is and i cant see that far of a licence plate and i after pay stupid £100 for eye test and 2 pair of glasses and then i can pass as i dont want to go and fail and lose £35 deposit
they charge you for the paper bit , ive got 2 bits i ordered a new 1 and then next month i found old 1 lol
my friend as no cbt and hes 23 and hes been riding 125cc for 8mths now is old insurance cut him off 3months ago as he couldnt show proof so he went else where and he lieing to them sayin he busy and he send it soon etc but one day he know about it when he crashes :rules: i just had to pay £20 for a new lience and paper as i lost paperwork
you can do it online if you got a passport it then shows proper proof who you are thats how i did it took 2days to say success for my application
