5-WAYS MOTORCYCLE CENTRE, BIKES FIT TO LEARN ON

5-Ways Motorcycle Centre have always had good relationships with local rider training schools and regularly supply quality bikes to be used for rider training. Yamaha, Suzuki and Kawasaki all have some great models that suit the job perfectly. It's always worth checking the model and age of the bike you will be training on to ensure you are getting the best experience and the added benefits from learning on suitable machinery.

CBT FULL DAY TRAINING COURSE

The morning starts with a short period in the classroom, where you will be given an introduction to the CBT, discuss clothing requirements and equipment, and cover topics including legalities of riding a bike on the public highway.

As the morning progresses you are given an introduction to the controls of your motorcycle or scooter and  you will be shown the daily and weekly checks you need to carry out on your bike. Later in the day you will then be taken to a private maneuvering area . Throughout this section of the course, which includes practicing putting the machine off and on its stand, set off and stopping procedures, gear changing and even slow control using marker cones, you will be closely supervised to ensure you are safe. Towards the end of this session you will practice emergency stops and U turns and also the correct procedures for making left and right turns. The private amneuvering session is followed by a short lunch break.

The afternoon starts with more classroom instruction, where they cover the road procedure including how to approach other road hazards such as traffic lights and roundabouts etc., the highway code, adverse weather conditions etc. Then having completed the course successfully up to this point you will be briefed for the road ride. During the road ride you will be under constant supervision with an instructor communicating directly with you via your helmet radio receiver. Together you will ride for approximately 2 hours, practicing ‘real time' all you have learnt during the course. Lastly, a CBT (DL196) certificate is issued. This will validate your license for 2 years. This certificate will also be required if later on you take your full test.

Automotive Compliance Ltd’s permissions as a Principal Firm allows Fiveways Motorcycle Centre Ltd to act as a credit broker, not as a lender, for the introduction to a limited number of lenders and to act as an agent on behalf of the insurer for insurance distribution activities only.

We can introduce you to a selected panel of lenders, which includes manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent. An introduction to a lender does not amount to independent financial advice and we act as their agent for this introduction. Our approach is to introduce you first to the manufacturer lender linked directly to the particular franchise you are purchasing your vehicle from, who are usually able to offer the best available package for you, taking into account both interest rates and other contributions. If they are unable to make you an offer of finance, we then seek to introduce you to whichever of the other lenders on our panel is able to make the next best offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure the best deal you are eligible for from our panel of lenders. Lenders may pay a fixed commission to us for introducing you to them, calculated by reference to the vehicle model or amount you borrow. Different lenders may pay different commissions for such introductions, and manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent may also provide preferential rates to us for the funding of our vehicle stock and also provide financial support for our training and marketing. But any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement, all of which are set by the lender concerned. If you ask us what the amount of commission is, we will tell you in good time before the Finance agreement is executed. All finance applications are subject to status, terms and conditions apply, UK residents only, 18’s or over. Guarantees may be required.
