A2 on a Big Automatic?

[Captain Slow]

Unfortunately I am unable to use a 'big bike' with gears, due to a past injury. So I am looking to pass my test on a big automatic scooter, around 4 to 500 CC. Is there any training agencies offering this in the South East?

I already have a CBT/Theory, and have tried and failed the Mod 1 on a manual.

Cheers in advance!

Find an old classic bike with a right foot gear change, or tank shift...

Alternatively, adapt a bike to have a right foot gear change and a thumb brake for the rear

Just found this:

Thanks for the info. That is not my problem though, it's more to do with passing the test with a permanently weak arm (figure of 8's and moving the bike.) Also, I really only enjoy automatics.... sad but true!

Lots of the Motorcross boys use a "Rekluse" clutch conversion to make their bikes semi-automatic.

that could open up your choice of bikes?

lots of vids on YouTube showing how the Rekluse clutch works.
