Oh, okay, I didn't know that. However I reckon a bike based one makes more sense unless you really don't care what you get out of the course other than a reduction in restricted time.

Competency based training assesment. A couple of riding schools could get you your full quicker if you passed this course. It was a trial course set so that suitably skilled riders could almost get their fulls within weeks.

I missed out

My bike is a 180, and doesn't really look like a scooter, but might technically fall into that category. Can I sit my licence on it ? I don't have gears, it's all CVT, which should make the whole ordeal easier for me...

But I guess if I need a motorcycle licence to ride it, I must be able to sit the test on it right ?

Oh, one more question... I'd like to reduce the wait for my full from 6 to 3 months. To do this I have to do some sort of advanced car test right ? What if I do not have a car licence ? My reasoning is that if I don't drive a car, I don't need a licence for it right ? So how do I take a stupid car test for my motorbike licence ? All seems a bit backwards if you ask me. (pic of bike attached)

hey im doing my restricted on friday aswell but at 2:15. yea i've just bought a fluoro vest and gonna wear protective clothing to suck up to the tester a bit. my dad also advised me to stick a clear visor on my lid so that the instructer can see me scanning and stuff. yea weather is lookin pants for the test day aswell. hopefully he'll feel sympathetic and pass me easy... yea do you think it will have any effect on the tester wearing all the safety gear and stuff? also i've gathered that the tester runs through round-a-bouts, intersections and u-turns and stuff. am i right? tanxs

Sucking up won't work. And legally all you need on a bike is a helmet. Try bribery with lots of dosh if you are determined to pass.
