A2Difficulty 2/5

If you hold only an A1 licence, may you ride an internal-combustion motorcycle with an engine capacity above 125 cm³?

Correct answer

No; you need an A2 or A licence that authorises that motorcycle.

No. A1 limits internal-combustion motorcycles to 125 cm³, as well as a maximum of 11 kW and 0.1 kW/kg. Age does not extend those limits. A motorcycle above 125 cm³ requires a category that authorises it: A2 if it meets all A2 limits, or A. Being above 125 cm³ does not by itself mean that A2 authorises any such motorcycle.
