Compulsory Basic Training (CBT)
 
In the United Kingdom (except Northern Ireland), the term Compulsory Basic Training (abbreviated to CBT) is a preliminary vehicular training course which must be completed by learner-civilians wishing to ride a motorcycle or moped unaccompanied on the road, and remains valid for 2 years upon completion. It was introduced on 1 December 1990 as a means of reducing accidents on the road caused by inexperienced drivers by reviewing aspects of riding both on and off the road with a qualified motorcycle instructor registered with an Approved Training Body (ATB). If a full car licence was obtained before 1 February 2001 it is not necessary to complete a CBT course to ride a moped.


A test passed on an a bike with automatic transmission will result in a licence for this type of machine only.
In Northern Ireland a driver with a provisional motorbike license, or a full car license may ride a bike up to 125cc on the road while displaying L-plates without the need for compulsory basic training.

im one of the lucky ones who doesnt have to retake the CBT after 2yrs. i passed my driving test before a certain date (cant remember what it is) which means the cbt lasts the life of my license and i dont have to display looney plates :D
