I currently have a full motorcycle licence but restricted to automatic. I grew up riding Vespas and currently own a 300 GTS Super.
I would like to remove the restriction by completing Mod 1 and 2 on a geared bike in the near future.
However, I would like to gain experience on a geared bike. Can I legally purchase and ride a 125cc manual bike with L plates under my auto licence. I assume it is similar if you had completed a CBT? Or would I need to take a CBT all over again to be covered?
The gov.uk website is not clear on this matter and various instructors have given me conflicting advice.
